The correct answer is A. Sabrina, because her claim is based on research and logic.

Explanation

A scientific claim is a way of proving a phenomenon (in this case a natural phenomenon) in which results of scientific tests are used in order to give reliability to the proposed answers, for this reason, Sabrina's statement that says that Seamounts are the result of a divergent plaque process is a scientific claim because it has been proven, while Chris's claim based on what he saw in a movie is not considered a scientific claim because he has no proof. So, the correct answer is A. Sabrina, because her claim is based on research and logic.

Why rhizoids not called roots?
garik1379 [7]
Most plants have roots, but there are some
exceptions. The exceptions are bryophytes
and the groups of green algae that are
classified as plants. Bryophytes have rootlike
structures called rhizoids for absorbing
water, but because rhizoids lack vascular
tissue they are not considered roots.

All energy comes from the sun. In 2-3 sentences, explain how it is transferred from one organism to another.
dedylja [7]

Answer:

When the sun rays come down into the atmosphere and the plants on the ground use photosynthesis to reproduce and eat. If an animal, for example, a bunny, eats grass the energy will be transferred to the bunny. If a fox eats the bunny, the energy transfers to the fox. the amount of energy will be reduced each time something is eaten because it keeps being consumed over and over.
