Dr. jones, a botanist, observes that flowers of the same species express a slightly different shade of red coloring based on where the plants are located within her greenhouse. she hypothesizes that the more sunlight the flowers receive, the darker red the petals of the flower become
what will dr. jones most likely do next in order to gain scientific knowledge about this phenomenon?
answer a: publish her hypothesis in a journal without experimental data
answer b: analyze data from a previous experiment on a different species of flower
answer c: interpret her hypothesis without performing an experiment or gathering data
answer d: develop an experiment to test her hypothesis and produce data

Dr. Jones should D. develop and experiment to test her hypothesis and produce data.

Explanation:

To explain different observations, scientists use the scientific method, which consists of:

1. Make an observation (in this case, Dr. Jones observes that flowers of the same species express a slightly different shade of red coloring based on where the plants are located within her greenhouse)

2. Review background.

3. Establish a hypothesis (in this case, she hypothesizes that the more sunlight the flowers receive, the darker red the petals of the flower become).

4. Experimental design to test the hypothesis (in this case, this is what she should do).

5. Analyses of the results.

6. If her hypothesis was correct, then she can publish the research; if not, she should establish a new hypothesis and continue to the next step.

the correct answer should be false
