Verbal Quiz - Claims / Hypotheses / Arguments

1 / 5

1. An environmental historian, Dr. Amanda Rogers, has been examining an extensive collection of farmer's diaries and historical weather reports from the 1800s to understand the impact of climate trends on agriculture in the Midwest. According to her findings, there is a strong correlation between multi-year weather patterns and shifts in crop production at the time. Dr. Rogers argues that these historical records can provide valuable insights for improving modern agriculture's adaptability and resilience to future climate changes. Which finding, if true, would most directly support Dr. Rogers' claim?

2 / 5

2. Renowned architect and city planner Susan Foster believes that incorporating more green spaces in urban settings can have holistic benefits on city dwellers' physical health and mental well-being. In her recent study, she investigates the effects of newly renovated and expanded green spaces on the overall health indicators and self-reported well-being of residents living close to those green spaces. To compare the results, she analyzes the data of residents living in similar neighborhoods that have not experienced similar green space improvements. Which finding, if true, would most directly support Susan Foster's claim?

3 / 5

3. In a research article, environmental scientist Dr. Elizabeth Stone discusses the impact of climate change on the migration patterns of bird species. According to Dr. Stone, alterations in global temperatures have led to shifts in the availability of food resources and the suitability of habitats, forcing many bird species to modify their migration patterns in search of better conditions. As part of her research, Dr. Stone analyzed data collected from multiple bird species in various regions over a 30-year period, focusing on changes in the timing and destinations of their migrations. Which finding, if true, would most directly support Dr. Stone's claim?

4 / 5

4. Climate change has caused many species to alter their behavior and adapt to changing conditions, including migratory birds. Ornithologists have noted a shift in the timing of bird migration patterns, with some species migrating earlier in the spring than previously recorded. This observation has led researchers to hypothesize that these changes in migratory behavior are a direct result of climate change and its impact on food availability. Which finding, if true, would most directly support the researchers' hypothesis?

5 / 5

5. Many economists argue that the proliferation of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum could provide a stabilizing force for global financial markets, as cryptocurrencies are not dependent on traditional banking systems and government-issued currency controls. Which finding, if true, would most directly support this argument?
