F. The runner used more Calories while running than she consumed during her snack.

Explanation:

According to this question, a runner eats a snack with 375 Calories of nutritional energy. After her snack, she burns 3,160 kJ while running.

Since 1 Calorie = 4.184 kJ, it means that the runner consumed 375 × 4.184 = 1570 kJ of energy. In other words, THERE WERE 1,570 kJ OF ENERGY IN THE SNACK.

Also, the runner burns 3,160 kJ while running meaning that she equivalently burnt 3160/4.184 = 755.258 calories. Approximately, 755 calories of energy were burnt by the runner while running.

In a nutshell, the runner consumed 375 calories of energy in her snack but used up 755 calories while running. This means that the runner used more Calories while running than she consumed during her snack.

the right answer is c i just did the question.

the answer is b because, investigating whether another species of moth also drinks tears might be interesting, but it would not directly explain why this species of moth does.

to explain why this species of moth drinks tears, the scientist could ask: "what nutrients that moths need are in elephant tears? "

the scientist could experiment with moth repellent or oter ways to keep the moths away, but that would not answer his original question.
