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

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

lasting only thirty seconds, can demolish a star. Information can be found in the section Stars and
Seas.
