Scientists have recently discovered a community of bacteria and clams living under an ice shelf in Antarctica. These organisms l

ive under 600 feet of ice, in the absence of sunlight, and in temperatures considered too cold for most living organisms. The location where these organisms live is unusual because
(1) only biotic factors control the size of the populations
(2) bacteria and clams are found in the same area
(3) of the abiotic factors found in their environment
(4) green plants make energy-rich compounds available

Answer:

Option 3, of the abiotic factors found in their environment

Explanation:

The abiotic factors such as absence of sunlight and extremely cold temperature represents picture of an extreme habitat under an ice shelf in Antarctica.  

The optimum temperature requirements of bacteria for its survival ranges from 10oC to 20oC. In case,  if a bacteria lives in an environment where temperature is less than -5oC or higher than  50oC, then such habitats are considered to be “habitats with extremities”  as special physiological mechanisms are required to maintain the homeostasis and survive.

Likewise absence of sunlight further adds to the extremities of the habitat.

Option 3, is correct

Most deer mouse populations inhabit regions with dark soils. These deer mice have dark brown fur. Populations of deer mice found
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Tan fur helps the mice protect themselves from predators

Explanation:

The entrenchment of this phenotype in the population is powered by natural selection pressures. The mice with fur color that enable them to camouflage with their environment are predated less than mice with other fur colors. These tan mice are therefore more likely to survive and pass their genes to the next generation. Through successive generations, the allelic frequency for the tan fur color increases until it is the dominant allele in the population.

Which of the following best describes the logic of scientific inquiry?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

d. if my hypothesis is correct, I can expect certain test results

Explanation:

To create a theory is not enough to state an assumption. Called scientific research, the practice tries, through a logical procedure, to produce tested, proven and safe scientific knowledge. This concept is based on the logic of scientific research that states that a hypothesis must be tested, because if the hypothesis is correct, certain test results can be expected. For this, some rules or phases are part of the process. And they are: observation, hypotheses, research method and conclusion.

Thus, we can conclude that among the alternatives presented, the one that best describes the logic of scientific investigation is the letter D.
