They are known for their strong attachment to specific areas, often found in coastal waters where they primarily feed on fish, especially salmon. These orcas live in tight-knit family groups, or pods, and have a culture centered around communication, hunting strategies, and traditions passed down through generations. Unlike transient or offshore orcas, resident orcas stay in one region year-round, making them the most commonly observed in these areas.","mcq_options":[{"right":"yes","answer":"Resident orca"},{"right":"no","answer":"Transient orca"},{"right":"no","answer":"Offshore orca"},{"right":"no","answer":"All of the above"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":1846,"title":"Geography of the United States","slug":"geography-of-the-united-states"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1859,"title":"Coastline of the United States","slug":"americas-coasts"},{"id":1862,"title":"Pacific Coast","slug":"pacific-coast"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/13144","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3502"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13144"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=13144"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=13144"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
