Which table correctly classifies statements about weather and climate?
Students investigate the water cycle in wet and dry environments. The students make two terrariums, one representing a desert and another representing a rain forest. They
add 100mL of water to the desert terrarium and 50 mL of water to the rain forest terrarium. The students observe that the desert terrarium looks too wet, so they remove
the lid. They keep the rain forest terrarium enclosed. How can students design a more valid investigation?
Students should test only one variable at a time and keep all other conditions the same.
Students should test other environments, such as ocean environments.
The investigation should be conducted outside so that the extra water in the desert terrarium evaporates faster.
The desert terrarium should be placed outside, and the rain forest terrarium should be placed inside.
