Randy is studying the migratory behavior of northern right whales. He wants to develop a scientific description for the location of male northern right whales during the winter. Randy hypothesizes that the males follow the females from their shared autumn habitat near the coast of Canada to the waters near the coast of Florida, where the females are known to give birth in the winter. After following a group of female northern right whales through the winter and spotting zero male northern right whales accompanying them, Randy determines that his hypothesis is incorrect. To continue his study, what should Randy do next? A. accept the theory that male northern right whales migrate to waters near the coast of Iceland in the winter months B. propose a new hypothesis explaining the whereabouts of the male northern right whales during the winter C. accept the theory that male northern right whales follow groups of female whales during the winter months D. assume that his observations were inaccurate and male northern right whales must still follow groups of females during the winter
