“expert” per team. Scientists always use the metric system for measurements, temperatures, and distances, so you will be expected to include metric measures. 1. Giant squid are often found with in nets with certain fish species (e.g., hoki, orange roughy) and in the stomachs of sperm whales. How might such clues help us find the giant squid? 2.
