Observations and Data: Qualitative and Quantitative Observations

The video tutorial explains the difference between qualitative and quantitative observations. Qualitative observations involve descriptions using senses, such as color or texture, while quantitative observations are based on numerical data and measurements. Examples are provided to illustrate both types of observations, including describing a tennis ball qualitatively and using temperature and distance to demonstrate quantitative observations.

Discuss the importance of making both qualitative and quantitative observations in scientific studies.
