Question

Shawna's science teacher asked the class to observe the organisms in a

space of 1 m² outdoors for 10 minutes each day for a week. Before beginning
her observations, Shawna needed to mark off the space.
Which of the following procedures is likely to be the least accurate?
A. Shawna will measure a space of 1 mx 1 m on a large sheet of
paper. She will then use the paper to mark the space outside.
B. Shawna will cut a piece of wood that is exactly 1 m long. She will
then use the wood to mark the space outside.
C. Shawna will walk along the meter stick and count how many steps
she takes. She will then walk off a space of 1 mx 1 m
D. Shawna will use a meter stick to measure a space of 1 m - 1 m

Answer 1

C. Shawna will walk along the meter stick and count how many steps she takes. She will then walk off a space of 1 m x 1 m

Step-by-step explanation:

This procedure is likely to be the least accurate because it is difficult to be precise when measuring by taking steps.
