I observe that squirrels that live in the southeastern United States are much thinner than squirrels that live in the northeaste

rn part of the country. I theorize that this is because the squirrels that live in the northeast have greater fat reserves for the winter months when food is scarce. Is this a scientific theory?

Answer:

No, it is not a scientific theory.

Explanation:

  • A scientific theory is a proposition that is made to explain the various phenomena that are occurring in nature and it is supported by experiments that have repeatability and well-analyzed results.
  • Scientific theories are usually tested in experiments under controlled conditions and verified as well.
  • In the given situation, the theory made by the observer is not being tested through any experimentation or quantification and therefore, it is just a hypothesis and not a scientific theory.

amm1812

Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants prepare their own food. They prepare their own food because they have chlorophyll in them.

Example: green plants like flowering plants, red algae, etc..

Consumers are the organisms that consume this food prepared by the plants. They cannot prepare food by itself. They don't have chlorophyll so they cannot prepare their own food.
