Okay, so the question is asking us, which of the following best describes the logic of scientific inquiry? a, if i generate a testable hypothesis, tests and observations will support it.
00:10
B, if my prediction is correct, it will lead to a testable hypothesis.
00:14
C, if my observations are accurate, they will support my hypothesis.
00:18
D, if my hypothesis is correct, i can expect certain test results.
00:22
Let's start with a.
00:23
If i generate a testable hypothesis, tests and observations will support it.
00:27
This is not necessarily true.
00:29
Just because a hypothesis is a hypothesis.
00:30
Is testable does not mean that it will be supported by test and observations.
00:34
It could be incorrect.
00:37
Hypotheses can be correct or incorrect, and that's how you find that out with test and observations.
00:44
So they won't always support it.
00:45
B, if my prediction is correct, it will lead to a testable hypothesis.
00:49
This isn't true either.
00:52
A testable hypothesis will be testable regardless of whether the prediction is correct or incorrect...
