Dr. Urquhart contributed significantly to Ebright's growth as a scientist. Explain.
Answers
Answer:
He was the one who helped him expand his knowledge about the migration of butterflies by letting him on his experiment. He even suggested experiments for his science fairs.
Explanation:
Ebright had become bored with collecting butterflies. His mother got him a book on the migration of butterflies. Ebright came in contact with Dr.Urquhart through the book. Dr. Urquhart directed him to study the migration pattern of butterflies. When he did not win any prize in the science fair in seventh grade, he again wrote to Dr. Urquhart to guide him. The scientist gave
him many suggestions for new experiments. Ebright performed these experiments throughout his high school and won many prizes. Later, he worked on why bright spots are found on a monarch pupa, motivated by Dr.Urquhart. It led to the discovery of a new hormone. The discovery of this new
hormone further led to an important theory. The theory was about how cells read their DNA. In this way Dr. Urquhart proved to be his true mentor.
