Think about an igneous rock at the top of a mountain. if this rock went through the whole rock cycle, number the steps that would follow. 1. step 1 regolith is dumped into some type of reservoir, usually water, by deposition. 2. step 2 metamorphic rock begins to melt back into magma. 3. step 3 regolith is transported or eroded by rain or wind. 4. step 4 rock is broken down into regolith by weathering. 5. step 5 layers deposited begin to compact and cement together to form sedimentary rock. 6. step 6 sedimentary rock is buried deeper into the earth's crust. the intense heat and pressure begins metamorphism and the rock turns into metamorphic rock. 7. step 7 magma is resurfaced from volcanic activity, cools, and becomes igneous rock.

One statements is an example of a scientific observation. another statement is an example of a scientific explanation. identify the correct statement for each category to illustrate how scientific explanations are inferred from scientific observations.

The collared lizard is a species found in the desert southwest. male collared lizards show considerable color variation, ranging from brightly colored to a very dull pattern. your goal is to determine the function, if any, of male color patterns in collared lizards, using the scientific method. your tentative explanation is that male color plays a role in attracting females for mating purposes. you predict that females will preferentially choose brightly colored males over dull-colored ones. to test this prediction, you observed the interactions of female collared lizards with their male counterparts. you selected males that were the same age and size, and that differed only in their coloration pattern. you placed equal numbers of the two types of male lizards, bright and dull, in aquariums, along with one female lizard per aquarium. out of 350 aquariums observed, the female chose to mate with the brightly colored male 277 times, and the dull-colored male 70 times. in 3 instances, the females did not mate with either type. create a bar graph of your data, plotting the type of male (dull or brightly colored) on the x-axis. on the y-axis, plot the frequency with which each type of male was chosen by females. using this graph, answer the following question(s). is it reasonable to conclude (i. e., is it supported by the data) that female collared lizards prefer more brightly colored male lizards over dull-colored males?
