Which is the best description of a student applying lifelong learning skills as she investigates kinetic and thermal energy?(1 point)

She reads that thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy and dismisses the statement, thinking it must be a mistake.

She asks her teacher to give her the answer to a problem she is working through about the connection between temperature and kinetic energy.

She memorizes how to convert temperatures among the three scales.

She learns that temperature is the measure of a type of kinetic energy and relates that to what she already knows about kinetic energy.

She learns that temperature is the measure of a type of kinetic energy and relates that to what she already knows about kinetic energy.

Explanation: this choice shows active, reflective learning—connecting new concepts to prior knowledge—whereas the others show dismissal, dependence on others, or only rote memorization.
