<h3>What is a reliable source?</h3>
In science, reliable sources include those that provide strong evidence to prove a hypothesis is false or true. The most common reliable sources in science are:
Data that was collected from experiments using the scientific method.
Observations that are consistent.
Peer-reviewed articles about a phenomenon.
Evidence such as specimens, fossils, rocks, etc.
Based on this, the event that was dated using the most valid and reliable resource is the millipede appearance because this event was dated using fossils, which are a type of reliable source in science. Moreover, other sources such as history books or green plants are not reliable.
decrease in population of the prey and an increase in rabbit population
Explanation:
The prey were constantly being killed and eaten by rabbits so there was a decrease in their population whilst the rabbits had an increase in their population due to there being more food for the to live on and there being less competition.
Animals derive energy by eating plants or animals and using cellular respiration to make ATP. Plants capture energy from the sun via photosynthesis and make sugar and oxygen. They can then use the sugar to perform cellular respiration to derive energy.
