Question

The scientists conducting this study conclude that their findings are species-independent and determine that it is sufficient to continue further studies on only stilt chicks. Based on the data in Figures 1 and 2, does the data in Figure 3 support this decision?%0D%0A%0D%0A(1 point)%0D%0AResponses%0D%0A%0D%0AYes.

Answer 1

No. Species-specific sensitivity to mercury concentrations is significant, and to be thorough, scientists should study multiple bird species.
