Answer the following question given this paragraph: A scientist is always trying to find the truth and discover new truths. How can you think like a scientist? Thinking like a scientist is based on asking and answering questions. Though you may not know it, you do this all day long. Scientists ask questions, and then make detailed observations to try to ask more specific questions and develop a hypothesis . They may design and perform an experiment to try to answer their question and test their hypothesis. From the results of their experiment, scientists draw conclusions . A conclusion describes what the evidence tells the scientist. Q: Scientists ask questions, and then make detailed observations to try to ask more specific questions, in order to develop what? A:
OPTIONS:
- Tests
- suggests
- theories
- hypothesis
hypothesis

Answer the following question given this paragraph: PET is used in tires, photographic film, food packaging, and clothing. Polyester fabric is used in permanent-press clothing.

OPTIONS:
- algae strands
- velocity strands
- wool strands
- polymer strands

Answer: polymer strands

input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The stability of an ecosystem depends on the actions of the decomposers. Examples of decomposers include mushrooms on a decaying log. Bacteria in the soil are also decomposers. Imagine what would happen if there were no decomposers. Wastes and the remains of dead organisms would pile up and the nutrients within the waste and dead organisms would not be released back into the ecosystem. Producers would not have enough nutrients. The carbon and nitrogen necessary to build organic compounds, and then cells, allowing an organism to grow, would be insufficient. Other nutrients necessary for an organism to function properly would also not be sufficient. Essentially, many organisms could not exist. Q: The stability of an ecosystem depends on the actions of what, exemplified by mushrooms on a decaying log and bacteria in soil? A:
OPTIONS:
- whitefly
- fluxes
- aphids
- decomposers
output:
decomposers
