Himalayan Rabbit
A scientist shaved an area of white fur on the back of a Himalayan rabbit and placed an ice
pack over the shaved area. The shaved area grew black fur.
Which of these best explains why the hair that grew back where the ice pack was placed was
black and not white?
F The genes for black hair were activated by specific temperatures.
G The white hair mutated to black hair as the rabbit's body temperature decreased.
H The coat color changed from white to black with the age of the rabbit.
3 White hair only grows during certain times of the year.

Recently, crops of vegetables such as lettuce and green onions have been contaminated, while they are still on the farm, with bacteria that cause food poisoning. how will science influence the way the government responds to prevent an increase in food-borne diseases? because science has shown that lettuce and green onions are not nutritionally valuable, the government may pass laws that ban the sale of lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that there is no way to prevent bacterial contamination, the government may pass laws that punish businesses that buy lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that the washing of hands prevent the spread of infectious diseases among people, the government may pass laws that require hand washing by everyone who handles food. because science has shown there are ways to find the source of the contamination, the government may pass laws that require farm practices that reduce the contamination of lettuce and green onions.
