A team of scientists think they discovered a new organism while exploring Brazil. Upon bringing the specimen back to their lab in Atlanta, they observe the specimen for several weeks. They take a sample from the specimen to observe it under a microscope and see the sample is composed of many small compartments containing what appears to be nuclei. They shine a bright light to the left of the specimen and observe it slowly turn itself towards the light over multiple days. What further evidence would support that the newly discovered specimen is alive?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Response of the organism to chemicals

when some particular chemicals are spilled when they are alive they have the ability to detect it so they either move away or closer to it. Moving further away signifies that life is in the organism and that the chemical maybe toxic to it health., some bacteria respond to chemicals

Response to touch, when there is life the organism will likely respond to touch, it can move away from the place trying to find another place to hid or stay.
