Spontaneous generation is the hypothesis that nonliving material can spontaneously change into a living organism. Hundreds of years ago, many scientists accepted this hypothesis. The following is one experiment that was performed to test the hypothesis of spontaneous generation: Meat was placed in three identical glass jars. One jar was left open, one jar was tightly sealed, and one jar was covered with a fine mesh that allowed air into the jar but kept flies out. Maggots (fly larvae) only appeared in the open jar. Was the control used in this experiment adequate?  A.  No, this experiment included two variables instead of one.  B.  Yes, the open jar acted as a control.  C.  No, this experiment did not include a control group.  D.  Yes, both the sealed jar and the jar with mesh were controls for the open jar

Examine the two squirrel populations in the accompanying figure. the populations are separated by a geographic barrier. if after a long period of time the two species are no longer separated, what evidence is needed to determine if speciation has occurred? the figure shows two populations of squirrels separated by a geographic barrier. examine the two squirrel populations in the accompanying figure. the populations are separated by a geographic barrier. if after a long period of time the two species are no longer separated, what evidence is needed to determine if speciation has occurred? the figure shows two populations of squirrels separated by a geographic barrier. polyploidy is creating new species. the two populations are not interbreeding freely. hybrid offspring of the two populations begin to appear. one species will increase into a population size twice as large as the other species.

What evidence could be used to convince policy makers to change a shipping lane from going through a whale breeding ground? information on the number of all whale species currently alive information on the number of all whales hit by boats in the given area information on the number of whale deaths in the world's oceans information on the number of whale offspring born every year. (a) scientists could collect and combine data on fish populations all around the world to show that their populations are declining. (b) scientists collect and combine data on fish populations all around the world to show that their populations are increasing. (c) scientists work together and use past data to show that fish populations are becoming locally extinct in some areas. (d) scientists work together and use past data to show that some fish populations are adapting to environmental changes.
