Question

1. based on the graph below, which of the following statements is most accurate? alien population over time prior to 33 days the population of medium aliens was decreasing. after 33 days the population of medium aliens was decreasing. after 33 days none of the aliens changed form. after 33 days the total number of aliens in each state was unchanged. 2. based on the graph below, if you chose an alien at random on day 20, what form would it most likely be in?

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the graph for medium - aliens

Observe the green line (medium - aliens). Before 33 days, it is increasing. After 33 days, it levels off.

Step2: Evaluate each option

• Option 1: Prior to 33 days, the population of medium - aliens was increasing, not decreasing.
• Option 2: After 33 days, the population of medium - aliens is constant, not decreasing.
• Option 3: After 33 days, the populations have stabilized, so no aliens are changing form in terms of the graph's indication of population changes.
• Option 4: After 33 days, the populations are constant, but this is not the most accurate description compared to the non - changing form statement.

for sub - question 2:

Step1: Check the number of aliens of each type on day 20

On day 20, the green line (medium - aliens) is lower than the blue line (thick - aliens) and the teal line (thin - aliens). The teal line (thin - aliens) has the highest number of aliens on day 20.

Step2: Determine the most likely form

Since the thin - aliens have the highest population on day 20, if an alien is chosen at random on day 20, it is most likely to be thin.

Answer:

After 33 days none of the aliens changed form.
