Question 24 • TX-English III

Connor is creating a multimedia presentation arguing that it is possible to colonize Mars.

Answer
A
a list of the NASA missions that traveled to the Earth’s moon
B
a quote from a science fiction book on Martian colonization
C
pictures of the surfaces of other planets in the solar system
D
a NASA experiment where crops grew in soil similar to that on Mars

Explanation

Connor needs evidence that supports the claim that people could colonize Mars. A NASA experiment in which crops grew in soil similar to Martian soil shows that growing food there may be possible, which is relevant to sustaining a colony. The other choices do not provide direct evidence about living or growing food on Mars.
