Question

8 multiple choice 2 points alice needed to design a science project. she decided that she wanted to focus her project on how an earthworms behavior helps it survive. before designing her experiment, alice went to the library to learn more about earthworms. which of the following resources would provide the best information for her to use? poems and fictional stories about earthworms non - fiction books and science websites on earthworm adaptations science websites and magazine articles about how earthworms fertilize soil personal websites and interviews with friends about their experiences with earthworms 9 multiple choice 2 points diagrams, tables, and graphs are used by scientists mainly to design a research plan for an experiment test a hypothesis organize data predict the independent variable 10 multiple choice 2 points the existence of extraterrestrial life may never be proven, but this idea will become more scientifically acceptable over time if no one disputes this idea in a scientific forum. hypotheses are made related to the idea. alternative hypotheses are proposed and confirmed.

Explanation:

• Question 8: Non - fiction books and science websites on earthworm adaptations provide factual and scientific information about the behavior that helps earthworms survive. Poems and fictional stories are not scientific. Science websites and magazine articles about fertilizing soil do not focus on behavior for survival. Personal websites and interviews with friends may not be reliable or scientific.
• Question 9: Diagrams, tables, and graphs are tools used to organize data. They are not for designing a research plan (that's more about the experimental setup), testing a hypothesis (that's the experiment itself), or predicting the independent variable (the independent variable is usually set by the experimenter).
• Question 10: If hypotheses related to the idea of extraterrestrial life are made, it allows for scientific investigation. Just because no one disputes it doesn't make it more scientifically acceptable. Alternative hypotheses being proposed and confirmed would likely make the original idea less acceptable if they are better supported.

Answer:

• Question 8: non - fiction books and science websites on earthworm adaptations
• Question 9: organize data
• Question 10: hypotheses are made related to the idea.
