Question

the passage below discusses some of the steps of an engineering - design challenge. select the part of the passage that describes evaluating. eliana catches fish to sell at a local market. the holes in her fishing net are small, so she often catches fish that are too small to sell. eliana needs a net to catch only fish that are at least 12 inches long. she buys a new net with bigger holes and tries it out. eliana is disappointed to find that the new net doesnt catch any fish because it floats too close to the surface. to make the net float less, she modifies it by attaching weights to one side.

Explanation:

Evaluating in engineering - design involves testing and analyzing the performance of a design. Eliana buys a new net and tries it out, and finds it doesn't catch fish due to floating too close to the surface. This trial - and - error process of testing the new net is the evaluation part.

Answer:

Eliana is disappointed to find that the new net doesn't catch any fish because it floats too close to the surface.
