Experiment: Two groups of rats were raised in different light conditions-one in constant light, the other in a normal light-dark cycle. Melatonin levels were measured.Observation: Rats in constant light had lower melatonin levels than those in a light-dark cycle.Question: What conclusion is supported?

Correct answer: B. Melatonin production is influenced by light exposure.

  • A. Rats produce melatonin regardless of lighting.
  • B. Melatonin production is influenced by light exposure.
  • C. Constant light increases melatonin.
  • D. Melatonin is not related to light cycles.

Explanation

The correct answer is Option B: Melatonin production is influenced by light exposure. This conclusion is supported by the observation that rats in constant light had lower melatonin levels than those in a light-dark cycle. The other options are incorrect because they do not align with the experimental results and observations provided.
