We have been thinking about two claims that are possible explanations for how the channel on Mars
was formed. We have considered evidence from images, as well as from the Flowing Water Model
and the Flowing Lava Model. As you answer the questions below, refer to the image of the channel on
Mars on page 17.
1.
Select the claim you think is best supported by the evidence you have seen so far. (check one)
 Claim 1: Flowing water formed the channel on Mars.
 Claim 2: Flowing lava formed the channel on Mars.
2.
Why do you think the claim you selected is best supported by the evidence?

Because the images show a watermark on the surface of Mars.
Because the images show changes in the relief of Mars that resemble the relief of the Earth in regions of running water.

The physical marks on the surface of Mars show very clear evidence of the possibility that running water existed on the planet. This certainty is fortified when scientists compare these relief marks with regions of the earth that also have running water, showing that if we disregard the atmospheric conditions, the marks on the two planets would be very similar.

In addition, some photographs show marks on the rocks of Mars that highlight the possibility of running water, which makes the theory even more believable.
