As you know, many mammalian species undergo seasonal molts (shedding and replacement of fur) which change their fur colors from brown to white. The snowshoe hare, Lepus americanus, typically undergoes the molt in late fall, which changes their fur color from brown to white. In the Pacific Northwest (Oregon, Washington), populations of snowshoe hares have been identified in which some individuals molt from brown to white in the fall, while other individuals molt from brown to brown. Provide a proximate explanation for this phenomenon.

Asnail, elodea (aquatic plant), or both were added to the tubes and they were stoppered. tubes were placed under a grow light for 24 hours and the results recorded. the test tubes were then covered for 24 hours to produce a dark environment and the results recorded. which statement best explains the change in test tube d from the light setup to the dark setup.

Which statements best describe the differences or similarities between a comparative investigation and an experimental investigation? check all that apply. experimental investigations are best for showing cause-and-effect relationships, while comparative investigations do not necessarily show this type of relationship. comparative investigations are often impractical and unrealistic, while experimental investigations are the most practical and realistic kinds of investigations. comparative investigations allow for the use of a wide range of variables but do not have a control group, while experimental investigations involve variables that can be controlled. both experimental investigations and comparative investigations are designed to answer scientific questions. both experimental investigations and comparative investigations focus on making observations rather than collecting new data.
