Bruce believes that male students in his physics course spend more time working on homework than female students. his teacher and classmates are skeptical, so they asked him for proof. which of the following would be the best way for bruce to prove his point? a. survey the class over a week’s time, asking if they did or did not work on physics homework b. make a class data table, and ask the class to record hours spent on homework each day when they enter the classroom c. have students record homework time in a class data table every day, tally up the time, and make a bar graph contrasting male and female homework times d. ask students to estimate hours spent on homework for the first semester, and tally up the time for males and females

c. Have students record homework time in a class data table every day, tally up the time, and make a bar graph contrasting male and female homework times

Explanation:

Asking the students if they did/did not do homework will not give a good estimate of time spent on homework by each gender.

Asking students to record hours spent on homework each day when they enter the classroom will amount to nothing if the data is not treated further.

Asking students to estimate hours spent on homework for the first semester, and then tallying up the time for males and females might not give an accurate estimation because students might be biased in their estimation. Also tallying up the hours for males and females amounts to nothing if they are not contrasted.

Every other option is deficient in some when compared to option c.

The correct option is c.

true is the answer : )

•there must be variation for the particular trait within a population.

•the variation must be inheritable (that is, it must be capable of being passed on from the parents to their offspring).

•individuals with one version of the trait must produce more offspring than those with a different version of the trait.good
