Dimitri is studying the evaporation of water. He spent a week measuring six cups of water three times a day to see how much water evaporated. He is preparing to create a graph of the measurements he recorded. What step of the scientific method is Dimitri working on?a)creating a hypothesis
b)conducting an experiment
c)analyzing the data
d)drawing a conclusion

Answers

Answer:   C) Analyzing the data

Explanation:   The hypothesis is an assumption or proposed explanation that has yet to be proven as an exact or starting point for further research. Since Dimitri does not proceed from the assumption, he has already carried out the experiment and recorded all changes in the evaporation of water, we can conclude that there is no hypothesis in question. As he has already carried out all the measurements and is preparing to create a chart of measurements he has recorded, we can conclude that the chart will analyze the recorded data, so the step of the scientific method in which Dimitri is working on, is analyzing the data. Only after completing this step of the scientific method he will make a conclusion.
he is working on analyzing the data

The Articles of Confederation limited the powers of what body?A. national government
B. state government
C. state military
D. Supreme Court

Answers

The Articles of Confederation limited the powers of state government. The correct answer is B. This document was signed by 13 states in America that were united into a confederation, with their own governments. This led to the weakening of the central government, and to the rise of their separate ones. Military was still strong, and the Supreme Court didn't exist yet.
