Polystyrene

Explanation:

Polystyrene is synthetic hydrocarbon made up of styrene monomers.

It is water proof material.

It is chemically inert that's why can not break down by the reaction of acid and bases.

It is used for the production of disposable glass, cups, plated and other dinner ware.

It is also used in packing.

Polystyrene is light weighted because it consist of almost 98% air.

Polystyrene foams are used as insulating material in buildings.

Polystyrene foam is formed by using blowing agents.

It is non-biodegradable.

Its formula is (C₈H₈)ₙ.

Its density is 0.96- 1.05 g/cm³.

It is solid at room temperature and melt above 100°C but on cooling again it becomes rigid.

the answer is b because, investigating whether another species of moth also drinks tears might be interesting, but it would not directly explain why this species of moth does.

to explain why this species of moth drinks tears, the scientist could ask: "what nutrients that moths need are in elephant tears? "

the scientist could experiment with moth repellent or oter ways to keep the moths away, but that would not answer his original question.
