First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first sentence because it introduces the main topic of the text. It talks about how feeding preferences affect migration. This is a general statement that sets the stage for the following paragraphs. It does not use any specific details or references to other ideas, which makes it a good opening line. Why other lines are not chosen? The other paragraphs are not chosen because they do not stand alone. For example, Paragraph 2 starts with 'The wildebeests,' which refers to a specific group and needs context. Paragraph 3 uses 'The other species,' which also needs prior information. Paragraph 4 starts with 'But when,' which shows it is continuing a thought. Paragraph 5 uses 'The sequence,' which assumes knowledge of what sequence is being discussed.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last sentence because it wraps up the main ideas. It gives a final point about how migration is related to body size. This helps to conclude the discussion about migration and feeding preferences.
