Answer 1

**7. Based on information in the passage, we can understand that:****C. many animals live at the beach**The passage mentions shrimp, crabs, seagulls, small fish, and starfish. This indicates a diverse range of animals inhabiting the beach environment. The other options are not explicitly or implicitly supported by the provided text.**8. Based on information in the passage, it can be inferred that the author considers it important that everyone understand the:****D. human digestive system**The author emphasizes the need for a "competent general knowledge of anatomy at large, and especially of human anatomy...of physiology at large and especially of human physiology." The digestive system is a key component of human physiology. While other scientific concepts are mentioned, the author's focus is on general knowledge applicable to everyday life, making human physiology the most fitting answer.**9. The author apparently believes that scientists:****D. discount the value of general courses of study**The author contrasts "education *in* science" (specialized training) with "science *in* education" (general scientific literacy). The author criticizes scientists for prioritizing specialized training over broader scientific understanding for the general population, implying they undervalue general courses of study. The other options are not supported by the passage.
