1. which of the following is a question the boys might have been trying to answer when they began their project?

a. why do bugs live under logs?
b. what causes tree limbs to die?
c. what types of bugs live under logs?
d. why do ants, but not grasshoppers, live under logs?

Explanation:

To determine the boys' project question, we analyze each option:

• Option a asks about the reason bugs live under logs, which is more complex and likely a follow - up.
• Option b is about tree limbs, not related to bugs under logs.
• Option c asks about the types of bugs under logs. This is a basic, exploratory question that is suitable as an initial project question to identify what bugs are present.
• Option d compares ants and grasshoppers' living under logs, which is more specific and would come after knowing the types of bugs.

Answer:

c. What types of bugs live under logs?
