Answer:

This is unethical.

Explanation:

Every creature contributes one way or the other to the existence of  ecosystem,and the   stabity of the biodervasity. The whale is one of the major componets of the aquatic biodiversity .Therefore continous killing whch may lead to extinction  would distablized rthe bioderstiy and leads to the loss of ecosystem.

Besides,if whales goes into exticntion this would  affet  the future generations to learn from  their existence?Therefore for preservation for future generations,they must be protected for extictinon.

The advent of  biotechnology,has shown the genetic products of human and  animals could be used to produce genetically modifjed product for humanity Thus if whale goes into exticntion this may not be possible.

After an investigation, Kuri determines that her hypothesis was wrong. What is the best thing for Kuri to do next?
Artist 52 [7]

Write a new hypothesis and conduct new experiments to explore the matter. Thus, option "B" is correct.

<h3 /><h3>What is the Hypothesis?</h3>

Hypothesis

The formulation of hypotheses is one of the key steps in the scientific method.

Hypotheses are usually tested using experiments and are usually accepted or rejected depending on the outcome of the experiments.

If a hypothesis is rejected, it does not mean that the entire subject is abandoned. Rather, new hypotheses may be formed and experiments conducted to further explore the subject.

What happens when lakes are acidified?
Elena L [17]
The best answer is B - the fish die. Acid rain flows through soils. If the soil part of a watershed, aluminum is released from the soil and into the streams and lakes located in that watershed. This lowers the pH in the lake from between 6 and 8 (which is the normal pH in lakes and streams) to less than 5. Both increase of aluminum and lower pH are directly toxic to fish and they kill off fish populations
