Question

A scientist designed an experiment to examine the effects of exercise on respiration he collected the volume of the gases produced by a group of people as they were running, walking, and at rest for 5 minute time periods. Which question can the scientist answer with his experiment?

A. Does the amount of time spent being active affect the volume of carbon dioxide breathed in?
B. Does decreased activity require a higher amount of oxygen than increased activity
C. Does the amount of oxygen produced during physical activity depend on time
D. Does increased activity lead to a higher volume of carbon dioxide produced?

The question that the scientist can answer with his experiment is:

**D. Does increased activity lead to a higher volume of carbon dioxide produced?**

This is because the experiment specifically examines the effects of different levels of physical activity (running, walking, and resting) on the volume of gases produced, including carbon dioxide, over a set period of time. Options A, B, and C do not align directly with the experiment's focus on measuring gases produced during varying activities.
