You sample 1000 lizards in a very large population. Every individual you have sampled is brown. You conclude that all lizards in this population are brown. This is deductive reasoning.true or false?  -Suppose all sex-changing fish are  from coral reef habitats. You discover a wild-caught sex-changing fish in a fish store. You conclude that this fish was harvested from a coral reef. This is inductive reasoning. true or false?  -Populations that live in areas with high ecological mortality reproduce at younger ages than similar species living in areas with low ecological mortality. You decide to run an experiment comparing two populations. The environment of population 1 has many predators, parasites, and pathogens; the environment of population 2 is free of predators, etc. You predict that population 1 will reproduce at a younger age than population 2. This is deductive reasoning. true or false?
