70% of the American population eats avocados at least once each year, so
that potential exposure of the populace to contaminants in avocados is
widespread (Why the area of study is important)
Nonetheless, little research has been done with regard to the uptake of trace
metals by avocados during their growth (why previous work is inadequate)
The proposed research would address this problem by making the first
detailed examination of the controls on concentrations of trace metals in
avocados (Research you plan to do, and how it will advance knowledge)
Specifically, groundwater in 15 groves of avocados will be sampled and
concentrations of trace metals determined by atomic absorption (How your
research will specifically address or test this question/hypothesis (methods))
We will test the hypothesis that concentrations of Hg and Cd in avocados are
correlated with the levels of these trace metals in the surrounding
groundwater (Specific question/aim/hypothesis)
Which of the following is the BEST short summary of paragraph 1? - correct
