Answer & Explanation Answer: B) It is possible to test hypotheses, such as those involving historical events, without conducting experiments.

Explanation:

The correct statement among the given options about the process of scientific inquiry is "It is possible to test hypotheses, such as those involving historical events, without conducting experiments."

 

Although it is not possible to carry out experiments to test hypotheses about evolutionary relationships between living groups or about the timing of the origin of major evolutionary innovations, such hypotheses can be evaluated by making predictions about the expected findings that would result from these hypotheses. Data can then be collected to test whether these predictions are correct.

Q:

What is the difference between malloc() and calloc() functions?

Answer

As against malloc(), calloc() needs two arguments, the number of elements  to be allocated and the size of each element. For example,


 p = (int *) calloc (10, sizeof (int));


would allocate space for a 10- integer array. Additionally, calloc() would also set each of this element with a value 0.


Thus the above call to calloc() is equivalent to:


p = (int *) malloc (10 * sizeof (int));


memset (p, 0, 10 * sizeof( int ));
