While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:
* In 2019, Emily Shepard and colleagues in the UK and Germany studied the effect of wind on aus' success in landing at cliffside nesting sites.
* They found as wind conditions intensified, the birds needed more attempts in order to make a successful landing.
* When the wind was still, almost 100% of landing attempts were successful.
* In a strong breeze, approximately 40% of attempts were successful.
* In near-gale conditions, only around 20% of attempts were successful.
The student wants to summarize the study. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
Difficulty: Medium
A:
For a 2019 study, researchers from the UK and Germany collected data on aus' attempts to land at cliffside nesting sites in different wind conditions.
B:
Emily Shepard and her colleagues wanted to know the extent to which wind affected auks’success in landing at cliffside nesting sites, so they conducted a study.
C:
Knowing that auks often need multiple attempts to land at their cliffside nesting sites, Emily Shepard studied the birds’ success rate, which was only around 20% in some conditions.
D:
Emily Shepard’s 2019 study of auks’success in landing at cliffside nesting sites showed that as wind conditions intensified, the birds’ success rate decreased.
