Question

scientists study earth and space in different ways. for example, astronomers use telescopes to observe stars and planets far away, while geologists can collect rock samples from earths surface. which statement best explains how their methods compare? a both astronomers and geologists collect samples directly from their subjects. b astronomers mainly rely on remote observations, while geologists can often study samples directly. c both fields rely mostly on laboratory experiments instead of observations. d astronomers and geologists both rely on satellites to directly measure their subjects.

Explanation:

Los astrónomos estudian estrellas, planetas y objetos celestes lejanos a menudo a través de telescopios y métodos de observación remota. Los geólogos, en cambio, pueden recopilar muestras de rocas directamente de la superficie de la Tierra. La opción B describe correctamente estas diferencias en enfoque.

Answer:

B. Astrónomos mainly rely on remote observations, while geólogos can often study samples directly.
