Alexis was interested in the way mirrors reflect. The living room of Alexis' house had one big window in the front, and a very large mirror on the back wall. Alexis hypothesized that the room would heat up faster in the morning with the mirror on the wall than it would if the mirror were covered with a sheet that was the same color as the walls.
What will make Alexis' hypothesis valuable?
A. It cannot be valuable because the investigation is in her house and not in the science lab.
B. Any testable hypothesis is valuable.
C. It will be valuable only if it is proved incorrect.
D. It will be valuable only if it is proved correct.
Answer (3)
it will only be valuable if proved correct so it's D
Any testable hypothesis is valuable. ;
Alexis' hypothesis is valuable because it is testable through experiments that can compare temperature changes in the room with and without the mirror. The ability to gather data and analyze results against a consistent control makes any testable hypothesis significant. Thus, the correct answer is B: Any testable hypothesis is valuable.
