2. Ngoy Mushola

4. Investigation Question Answer
In my opinion I believe that if early explorers didn’t
find or explore things the way they did it would be
different on how people explore. Their research is the
beginning of future explorers studies or findings. If it
was found differently it would probably have a
different perspective on it.
5. Support
If Ngoy didn’t find Ebola it probably wouldn’t be
named Ebola(after the Ebola River)
6. More Support
If Ebola wasn’t found in 1976 Dr. Lukwiya wouldn’t
know it was Ebola and he would call it Malaria. He
wouldn’t know the symptoms of this rare disease.
