Which of the following questions can be investigated scientifically?
a prediction
Show all results obtained and then explore the reasons for these outliers
there are at least two groups, one of which does not receive the experimental treatment
to ensure that the results obtained are due to a difference in only one variable
Does tanning harm the skin?
Without a control group, there is no basis for knowing if a particular result is due to the variable being tested
the control group is matched with the experimental group except for the one experimental variable
flawed because there were different colored seeds
A hypothesis states that wrinkled seeds will have lower germination than smooth seeds. Results support the hypothesis. However, only green wrinkled seeds germinated. Yellow wrinkled seeds did not. The experiment is

In presenting data for an experiment, a group of students show that most of their measurements fall in a straight diagonal line on the graph. However, two of their data points are outliers. What should the students do?
