While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:
* In the art world, the term biennial traditionally refers to an art exhibition that takes place every two years in a single location.
* Such biennials are held in New York, Berlin, and Venice.
* In 2006, artists Ed Gomez and Luis Hernandez founded the unconventional MexiCali Biennial.
* The MexiCali Biennial hosts exhibitions in different venues on both sides of the US-Mexico border.
* The MexiCali Biennial has taken place on an uneven schedule, with exhibitions in 2006, 2009-10, 2013, and 2018-20.
The student wants to emphasize a difference between the MexiCali Biennial and traditional biennials. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
In 2006, artists Ed Gomez and Luis Hernandez founded the MexiCali Biennial, which has taken place in 2006, 2009-10, 2013, and 2018-20.
Unlike traditional biennials, the MexiCali Biennial hosts exhibitions in different venues on an uneven schedule.
The term biennial traditionally refers to an art exhibition that takes place every two years in a single location, not to exhibitions hosted at a variety of times and venues.
Biennial exhibitions have been held in New York, Berlin, and Venice but also on both sides of the US-Mexico border.
The number of dark spots that appear on the Sun, known as sunspots, can vary greatly. For example, there were about 180 sunspots in November 2001. ________ there were only about 2 sunspots in December 2008.
Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?
In other words,
Similarly,
Therefore,
By comparison,
While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:
* Ducklings expend up to 62.8% less energy when swimming in a line behind their mother than when swimming alone.
* The physics behind this energy savings hasn't always been well understood.
* Naval architect Zhiming Yuan used computer simulations to study the effect of the mother duck's wake.
* The study revealed that ducklings are pushed in a forward direction by the wake's waves.
* Yuan determined this push reduces the effect of wave drag on the ducklings by 158%.
The student wants to present the study and its methodology. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
A study revealed that ducklings, which expend up to 62.8% less energy when swimming in a line behind their mother, also experience 158% less drag.
Seeking to understand how ducklings swimming in a line behind their mother save energy, Zhiming Yuan used computer simulations to study the effect of the mother duck's wake.
Zhiming Yuan studied the physics behind the fact that by being pushed in a forward direction by waves, ducklings save energy.
Naval architect Zhiming Yuan discovered that ducklings are pushed in a forward direction by the waves of their mother's wake, reducing the effect of drag by 158%.
