the students in mr. c's class were studying climate change and were doing a lab experiment to find out more about rising sea
level. they were given two clear identical containers with clay (representing land). eight ice cubes were added on top of the clay
in container a representing greenland and antarctic ice sheets water was added to the container up the the land (not above it).
eight ice cubes were added to the bottom of the container b(not on the clay) representing ice in the arctic water was added to
the container up the land (not above it). measurement of water was taken in for both containers. a heat lamp was then placed
above each container to melt the ice. measurement was taken again at the end of the experiment when all the ice was melted.
what can you infer was the result?
a) container a showed an increase in water level
b) container b showed an increase in water level
c) both containers showed an increase in water level
d) neither containers showed an increase in water level
