Astudent sees several ants walking up a wall following the exact same trail that an ant took earlier. she wants to apply the scientific method to determine how the ants detected the trail. which of these steps would come first in her application of the scientific method? perform an experiment by cleaning the scent away from part of the trail. draw a conclusion that the ants follow a scent trail. make a prediction about what the ants will do after she cleans away part of the trail. hypothesize that the ants are following a scent trail that the first ant left.

Kara has a plant that produces either purple or white flowers. she crosses a plant that has two recessive alleles for white flowers with a plant that has two dominant alleles for purple flowers. which result would be true of all of the offspring? a) all of the offspring would have two recessive alleles and white flowers. b) all of the offspring would have two dominant alleles and purple flowers. c) all of the offspring would have one recessive allele, one dominant allele, and white flowers. d) all of the offspring would have one recessive allele, one dominant allele, and purple flowers

Scientists studied reproduction in the new zealand mud snail to answer the question, “are there benefits to reproducing sexually or asexually? ” which of these hypotheses would least likely aid the scientists as they worked to answer the question? sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it reduces the rate of mutation accumulation. asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it allows the snails to produce more offspring. sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it allows for snails to have increased genetic variation. asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it decreases the snails’ need for social
