2..Explain how the monarch butterfly migration works.

I'm not sure what "how" means in this case.  The monarchs overwinter as butterflies in Mexico (I think near Monterrey; their overwinter habitat is vanishing).  They begin flying north and it takes six generations or so for them to make it up north and down south again.  The whole process is genetic.  On the way north, some split off to the west, some central, and some to the east, as far north as Nova Scotia.  They lay their eggs on the undersides of milkweed plants.  The caterpillars eat the milkweed, which is poisonous to most creatures, which is why monarchs are poisonous to their predators.  The caterpillars molt 5-6 times before making the most beautiful crysalids -- they're green, kind of bulbous, with gold beads around the part with the biggest girth.

5.  In the UK, I think around 1939.  In the US, 1966.
