Of the list the answers that are observations rather than opinions would be C) Ocean acidity was greater in 2010 than in 2000, D) heart disease is the major cause of death in the United States. Answer E) could be an observation however it makes a generalization about the status of bee populations that is largely unfounded so it would be considered an opinion and not an observation.
