(PLS HELP DUE IN 5 MINS!) The pteropoda, or “sea butterfly”, is a tiny sea creature about the size of a small pea. Pteropoda are

eaten by organisms ranging in size from tiny krill to whales. They are a major food source for the North Pacific juvenile. Their shells are made up of calcium carbonate. The photo provided is the shell of a pteropoda. The shell can dissolve within a 45 day period. What can one infer about what is causing the shell of the pteropoda to disappear while in a marine environment?
a) Carbon monoxide (CO) is being released by natural systems. Oceans are absorbing this excess of CO and the pH within the oceans is increasing.

b) Methane (CH4 is being released too quickly from burning of fossil fuels. Oceans are lowering their pH and ocean acidification occurs.

c) Natural sources are releasing an excess of CO2 to the oceans. The marine photosynthetic organisms are emitting too much oxygen. This is return is causing ocean acidification.

d) The excess of CO2 emitted from anthropogenic sources is being absorbed by the oceans from the atmosphere. This results in more hydrogen ions in the ocean, which increases acidification.

1. Explain the five steps of the scientific method.
RideAnS [48]
1. Scientific method is the techniques that scientists used to carry out investigation process. It is made up of five steps, which are:
a. Observation: this is the stage in which a scientist make an observation to which he did not have an explanation.
b. Formation of a research question:  in accordance to observation made, the scientist form a question on which his experiment will be based
c. Formation of hypothesis: at this stage the scientist offers a proposed explanation for the observation which he had made and state what he expects at the end of the experiment.
d. Conduction of the experiment: at this stage the scientist carry out the experiment using appropriate means.
e. Analysis of data and drawing of conclusion: this is last stage of the investigation, at this stage, the scientist analysis the results he obtained and draw a conclusion based on the results of the data.

2. Scientists used scientific method to carry out scientific investigations because the method minimize the influence of bias and prejudice in the experiments that they carry out. The method provides an objective, standardized approach to scientific investigation; this result in reproducible results which can be achieved by other scientists in every parts of the world. The method also helps to minimize errors during investigation.
