Use the experiment below for Questions 8 and 9: A student tested different paper towel brands to see which absorbed the most water. Brand | Amount of Water Absorbed (mL) | Time Soaked (sec) A | 15 | 10 B | 23 | 10 C | 32 | 10 D | 10 | 10 8. Use the labels below to correctly match each part of the experiment. Paper towel brand = ______________ Time soaked = ______________ Amount of water absorbed = ______________

• Paper towel brand = A, B, C, or D Time soaked = 10 Amount of water absorbed = 15, 23, 32, or 10

• Paper towel brand = 10 Time soaked = A, B, C, or D Amount of water absorbed = 15, 23, 32, or 10

• Paper towel brand = 15, 23, 32, or 10 Time soaked = A, B, C, or D Amount of water absorbed = 10

• Paper towel brand = 15, 23, 32, or 10 Time soaked = 10 Amount of water absorbed = A, B, C, or D
