Final answer:

The correct match for the descriptions to the tools is 'b. Scientific Probe, Weather Station, Scientific Probe, Weather Station'. A weather station measures atmospheric conditions while a scientific probe can measure and digitally record a variety of data including pH and flow rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

To correctly match each description to the appropriate tool, we need to consider what each piece of equipment is used for. A weather station typically measures temperature, humidity, wind speed, and atmospheric pressure. On the other hand, a scientific probe can measure a variety of data such as pH levels, conductivity, and dissolved oxygen. These probes can often digitally record data, for instance, the flow rate in a stream or river.

Therefore, the correct matching based on the description provided would be as follows:

  1. measures a variety of data, including pH levels and conductivity - Scientific Probe
  2. measures temperature, humidity, wind speed, and pressure - Weather Station
  3. gathers information about local atmospheric conditions - Weather Station
  4. can digitally record data, such as flow rate - Scientific Probe


Hence, the descriptions correctly match the tools in the following order:

b. Scientific Probe, Weather Station, Scientific Probe, Weather Station
