• True

• False

What is a hypothesis?

• A hypothesis is the right answer to an experiment.
• A hypothesis is the wrong answer to an experiment.
• A hypothesis is an educated guess.
• I don't know.

The step of the scientific method that involves gathering information about your problem or topic

• analyzing data

• research & observations

• conclusion

• hypothesis

What are you trying to determine when you analyze your results?
