Question

match these scientific questions with the scientist that would study them. will the hurricane in the atlantic ocean reach land? what are saturns rings made up of? how do marine ocean reefs change when more nutrients are available? does heavy metals released from mining activities harm fish? how will the climate warm if carbon dioxide continues to rise in the atmosphere? 1. astronomer 2. environmentalist 3. meteorologist 4. climatologist 5. oceanographer

Explanation:

• Hurricanes are weather - related phenomena, so a meteorologist studies if an Atlantic Ocean hurricane will reach land.
• Saturn's rings are celestial objects, thus an astronomer studies what they are made of.
• Marine ocean reefs are part of oceanic ecosystems, and an oceanographer studies how they change with more nutrients.
• The impact of mining - related heavy metals on fish is an environmental concern, so an environmentalist studies it.
• The relationship between rising carbon dioxide and climate warming is a climate - related topic, so a climatologist studies it.
