Marcus grew three rosemary plants. He put one in direct sunlight, one in the shade, and one in the
dark. The plant in the sun grew the most quickly
and looked the healthiest. Marcus concluded that
rosemary plants grow best in the sun.
How would you evaluate Marcus's conclusion?
O A. His conclusion is valid because his
experiment included a control.
B. His conclusion is valid because he tested
only one variable.
O C. His conclusion is flawed because he did
not perform enough trials.
O D. His conclusion is flawed because it is
based on the appearance of the plants.

Read the following scenario to answer the following question. in some zoos, rare crosses between a male lion and a female tiger have produced hybrid offspring called "ligers." male ligers are sterile but some female ligers are fertile. in the wild, lion and tiger ranges do not naturally overlap, making such a cross unlikely. furthermore, the solitary behavior of tigers and the social organizations of lions create behavioral differences. applying the biological species concept, the sterility of ligers reveals that a. lions are probably a subspecies of tigers b. tigers and lions are the same species c. a new species called "ligers" is forming d. tigers and lions are separate species

1. variations in a population of moths allow for some of its members to be able to adapt to environmental changes. the better adapted of the moths will be able to survive the change and thus prevail as the “fittest” of the species. (a) describe three mechanisms in which variation can occur within a species population. (b) explain which mechanism or mechanisms would be responsible for the survival of a population of peppered moths better than white moths in an environment affected by industrial soot. justify your answer.

Which statement correctly describes a way that mutations increase the likelihood that a species will survive in a changing environment
