Fossils of the first animals are rare because they a. had hard shells that broke down easily, leaving no trace. b. were large and likely to be eaten by others after they died. c. were soft-bodied and tiny, therefore unlikely to fossilize. d. lived only in volcanic regions, and were destroyed by lava flows.

Two students are working together on an experiment that measures the effect of different liquid fertilizers on the thickness of plants’ stems. which is most likely to result in the greatest amount of error in their scientific experiment? a.one student measures the plant stem widths by using calipers. the other student measures the widths of the same plant stems again by using a different pair of calipers. b.one student measures the plant stem widths by using calipers. the other student types the measurements as they are taken into a computer spreadsheet. c.one student weighs liquids for the experiment by using a calibrated scale. the other student weighs liquids for the experiment by using a different calibrated scale.
