Meg goes swimming on a hot afternoon. when she comes out of the pool, her foot senses that the pavement is unbearably hot. suppose meg wants to apply the scientific method to discover reasons for the hot pavement. what is the next step she should take? analyze the data ask questions communicate the results make observations

The correct answer will be option-ask a question.

Explanation:

A scientific method is a systematic procedure to understand and answer the complex natural phenomenon or events.

The method involves sequential steps which begin with making an observation followed by asking a question which could have real answers and could be tested through scientific experiments. Based on the question background research is done and a hypothesis is proposed to which could be proved or disproved through the experiments. The data collected from the experiments can be analysed and the conclusion is made.

In the given question, Meg has performed the step of making an observation as her foot sensed hot which could be followed by asking a scientific question which could be tested through the experiments and can be answered.

Thus, option-  ask questions is the correct answer.

pure water does not conduct electricity very well. however, when certain substances are dissolved in water, the solution does conduct electricity. you can make a simple device that shows how well a solution conducts electricity. this device uses a flashlight bulb to indicate how well the solution conducts electricity. the better the solution conducts electricity, the brighter the bulb will glow.
