As a result of the experiment scientists did with Mexican tetras, it seems likely that their first hypothesis about blindness in the tetras is right. Explain how the result of the experiment supports their first hypothesis. The scientists' first hypothesis is that blindness gives the fish some sort of evolutionary advantage, but not directly.

The experiment was: The scientists transplanted a lens from the eye of a surface tetra embryo into the eye of a cave tetra embryo. The result was striking—the surface tetra lens into the cave tetra caused all of the surrounding tissues to develop into a healthy eye.

It is called the Mexican tetra. The scientists have come up with two possible explanations for the fish's blindness. The explanations will probably help them to understand other cave fishes as well. The scientists' first hypothesis is that blindness gives the fish some sort of evolutionary advantage, but not directly. The data for the first part of the experiment support the first hypothesis. As the force applied to the cart increased, the acceleration of the cart increased. Since the increase in the applied force caused the increase in the cart's acceleration, force and acceleration are directly proportional to each other, which is in accordance with Newton's second law.

Sample Response: The data for the first part of the experiment support the first hypothesis. As the force applied to the cart increased, the acceleration of the cart increased. Since the increase in the applied force caused the increase in the cart's acceleration, force and acceleration are directly proportional to each other, which is in accordance with Newton's second law.

Explanation:

i think i did this before so i know the sample response i hope im right

allowed for the prediction of the properties of missing elements.
