68. Students found frog eggs in the school pond 68. Students found frog eggs in the school pond. One mass was put in a aquarium in the room. Students checked daily and discovered that the temperature of the water in the pond was warmer than in the aquarium. The tadpoles in the pond became frogs faster than the tadpoles in the aquarium. What conclusion can students make from this observation? A. the eggs in the pond are better than the ones in the aquarium B. the eggs in the pond are a different species C. warmer temperature makes the eggs grow faster D. tadpoles in the pond change faster so they do not get eaten by the fish
