This seems like a design question. Assigning to @amanda-phet.
Thanks for bringing this up @DevonQui . We definitely struggled with the language in the third scene, but since I specifically made sure students interpreted it correctly in interviews, I'm inclined to leave all of the language as it is. Also, each scene is a new context and needs contextual language, and doesn't need to be 100% the same.
Closing without making any changes.

Problem description This is for https://github.com/phetsims/qa/issues/675
In the fish and bird scene of the Explore tab I noticed that Absolute Value Distance Description said "The fish and the bird have a vertical DISTANCE of X meters" whereas the other two scenes are "The house and the person are X meters APART" and "The DIFFERENCE in temperature is X degrees". The other two scenes describe a difference between two values but the fish and bird scene doesn't really seem to do that with the current wording IMO. Was it supposed to say "the fish and the bird have a vertical DIFFERENCE (not distance) of X meters"?
