Question

Suppose you have made the following hypothesis:

Sharks are most common near coral reefs, because there are more fish there to eat.
What type of evidence would be most helpful to gather to test this hypothesis?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

You could look up the shark population near specific coral reefs. You could also go the simple route and say something like, "sharks eat fish so, sharks will go where the fish are and if there are fish in the coral reefs, (which there are) they would be most likely to go there".  I know this may not be the answer you were looking for but its the best I've got.

Answer 2

Explanation:

counts of sharks observed near a reef and in a nearby section of the ocean
