Remy has learned that rock and soil from avalanches can cause tsunamis by falling into the ocean. Remy wonders if the height of the mountain has anything to do with the eventual size of the tsunami wave. How should Remy test this?(1 point) Responses Build different-sized model mountains at the edge of a pool, pour sand down the side of each mountain, and see how large each resulting wave is.

To test whether the height of the mountain has an effect on the size of the tsunami wave, Remy should cause avalanches on several different mountains and see how large each resulting tsunami is. This method directly correlates the height of the mountains to the resulting tsunami size, allowing for a clear observation of any potential relationships between the two variables.
