a. written description of the experiments used to support the claim
b. high-profile athletes supporting the claim in sports journals and magazines c. other scientists not associated with the product testing the claims d.
disclosure of the ingredients of the product and their known side effects

The correct answer is C. Other scientists not associated with the product testing the claims

Explanation:

In science and fields derived from it, a claim about a product, event, situation or phenomenon is considered as valid only if there is enough evidence to prove it. This is especially important in the case of a company that develops a new product because the claim needs to be proven by other scientist and not only by the company itself due to the interest of companies to prove the effects a product. Because of this, in this case, the most reliable way to prove a claim is that other scientists that do not have any interest with the company or product carry out testing to determine if the product has the effects the company claims (option C).

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
