Question

Tadpoles raised in water with atrazine levels of 0.1 ppb should produce a higher percentage of male frogs with gonadal abnormalities than those raised in pure water. This statement is an example of:
a. a question leading to an hypothesis
b. an hypothesis
c. a testable prediction leading to design of an experiment
d. data from an experiment
e. an interpretation of data

Answer 1

Answer:

correct option is c. a testable prediction leading to design of an experiment

Explanation:

The results of raising tadpoles were estimated to be water with an atrazine level of 0.1 ppb compared to those grown in pure water. So, this is not the question. If this assumption can now be tested, an experiment can be made in which a certain number of tadpoles can be raised in pure water and the same number of tadpoles can be raised in water with a 0.1ppb atrazine level can. The difference between the two populations can be estimated or compared.
