Which of the following explains why the term "scientific Inquiry might be considered more appropriate than "scientific method? It suggests the research process is more circular than a rigid series of steps. It suggests the research process involves specific steps, rather than repeated cycles of investigation. It is a more thorough definition that includes disciplines that can't be tested empirically. It is a more specific definition that excludes any disciplines that are theoretical or methodological.

Female luna moths (actias luna) attract males by emitting chemical signals that spread through the air. a male hundreds of meters away can detect these molecules and fly toward their source. the sensory organs responsible for this behavior are the comblike antennae visible in the photograph shown here. each filament of an antenna is equipped with thousands of receptor cells that detect the sex attractant. based on what you learned in this chapter, propose a hypothesis to account for the ability of the male moth to detect a specific molecule in the presence of many other molecules in the air. what predictions does your hypothesis make? design an experiment to test one of these predictions.
