Everything else about the two environments was the same, including the type and amount of food and water. She allowed the experiment to last for a few generations of mice and tested the activity levels of the different groups.
There was no change in the activity levels of the mice, but she noticed that the mice in the cold environment had much darker, thicker fur than the mice in the hot environment. What scientific question could she ask based on her results?
A.
Does temperature have an effect on fur color and thickness in mice?
B.
Does food type have an effect on fur color and thickness in mice?
C.
Which group of mice is the most attractive?
D.
Do the mice in the cold environment run faster than the mice in the hot environment?

The most appropriate scientific question Dr. Grey could ask based on her results is:
A. Does temperature have an effect on fur color and thickness in mice?
This question directly relates to her observations of the differences in fur color and thickness between the two groups of mice subjected to different temperature environments.
