Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

To test if the selenium from the mine has an effect on the fish living in the lake which i assume is close to the mine, testing the tissue of the fish from that lake and comparing it to the selenium levels of the fish from a nearby lake would be a testable hypothesis because there is a comparable aspect and there should be a difference in the numbers between the fish from the two lakes because of their distance to the mine.

I hope this answer helps.
