What step of the scientific method is the following: Using four incubators, the first will be set at 10 degrees celsius, the second will be set at 20 degrees celsius, the third will be set at 30 degrees celsius, and the fourth will be set at 40 degrees celsius. There will be a fifth group of goose eggs without an incubator. As eggs hatch the sex of the goose chick will be recorded.
