Multiple Choice

After reading the paragraph below, answer the questions that follow.
Ron and Tiffany are studying circulatory system function. They designed an experiment to test whether the diameter of a tube affects the rate of flow through the tube. In their experiment, they ran water from a large container through five tubes with different diameters for exactly 30 seconds for each tube. They measured the volume of liquid that passed through the tube during the 30-second period, testing each tube three times and pouring the water back into the container after each test. The results of the experiment are shown in the following table.

-Which statement best summarizes the results of the experiment?

• A)The larger the tube diameter, the greater the flow volume.
• B)The larger the tube diameter, the smaller the flow volume.
• C)The tube diameter shows no clear relationship to flow volume.
• D)The flow rate through the largest tube is approximately twice that through the smallest tube.
