Scientists are studying a group of ant colonies in the Arizona desert. Which question about the ants can be answered scientifically?

A scientific question can be tested by observing or measuring evidence. Scientists could record the amount of sunlight each day and measure how much food the ants eat, then compare the results. Whether the colony is more fun to teach about or which picture gets the most attention depends on personal opinions, while predicting whether the ants will live a million years is not something scientists can directly test now.
