  d. A law explains unvarying uniformity under the same conditions.



Question 2

ANS: C
  Oxygen in itself is a very reactive element. It binds quickly to other materials. Remember, free oxygen
  only became abundant in our atmosphere when photosynthetic organisms began producing more.
  Thus, if there is a large amount of free oxygen, then there is something present that is replacing it in
  the atmosphere. This is likely to be a life-form of some sort. Information can be found in the section
  Are There Other Ocean Worlds

Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Laws provide explanations to events that occur in nature which are uniform when tested under the
same conditional parameters. Therefore, a law is able to summarize observations. A theory is actually
responsible for supplying explanations for those observations. Information can be found in the section
Marine Scientists Use the Logic of Science to Study the Ocean.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A supernova is a shattering expansion in which there is an explosive release of energy. This explosion,
lasting only thirty seconds, can demolish a star. Information can be found in the section Stars and
Seas.
