Question
a student wants to test the idea that earth and meteorites formed from similar material. which research design would provide the most relevant evidence? (1 point) compare fossils found within sedimentary rocks to those found in meteorites. interview scientists who work with both types of rocks. study the angle at which meteorites strike earth. measure the chemical composition of meteorites and igneous rocks.
Fossils are remnants of life and not related to the formation - material comparison. Interviewing scientists is not direct evidence. The strike - angle of meteorites has no relation to formation materials. Chemical composition reveals the material makeup, so measuring the chemical composition of meteorites and igneous rocks (which are primary rocks formed from the Earth's interior) can show if they formed from similar material.
