There was a submarine in Loch Ness and a cave. They started looking for her, but as they left there was nothing, but it is said that there was a monster there.

Well, some people made up the wrong thing, the Lord made a joke on him, but in fact, there is no useful evidence that there is a monster. If people aren't cheating or reporting fake Nessie sightings,

Perhaps scandals and activist theories will bother scientists to speed up research. From what you read, 


do you think there is a monster in Loch Ness? Why or why not? 馃挘馃挘馃挘馃挘馃挘馃挘馃挘馃挘馃挘馃挘

I think yes and no at the same time it is more because I believe that the Loch Ness monster is rather a prehistoric animal that has grown over the years and that has survived for a long time as it could also have reproduced over the years and started to go extinct little by little

This conditional is used when the result will always happen. So, if water reaches 100 degrees, it always boils. It's a fact. I'm talking in general, not about one particular situation. The result of the 'if clause' is always the main clause.

The 'if' in this conditional can usually be replaced by 'when' without changing the meaning.
