Summarize Argument: Phenomenon-Hypothesis

The author hypothesizes that juvenile Pacific loggerhead turtles that feed near the Baja peninsula hatch 10,000 kilometers away, near Japan. As support for this hypothesis, the author says that 95% of the DNA from these turtles near the Baja peninsula matches the DNA of the turtles near Japan.

Notable Assumptions

The author assumes that a 95% DNA match is enough to conclude that different turtles belong to the same group.
