5. Scientists have studied glaciers in Greenland as evidence of global warming. One team of scientists predicts that glaciers are melting at an accelerated rate. The scientists collect the same types of data on the same glaciers on the same dates each year for ten years. The scientists conclude that the glaciers have decreased in mass and increased their velocity toward the sea each successive year. Which of the following statements best evaluates the process that the scientists used? The process is a flawed experiment because the variables are not controlled. b. The process is a valid experiment because there is an independent variable and a test variable. The process is a flawed investigation because the investigators did not begin by forming a hypothesis. d. The process is a valid investigation because scientists used systematic methods for collecting and analyzing information. C.​
