EXERCISE 2: TESTABLE OBSERVATIONS
Below are several observations that can inform a testable hypothesis. For each of the following observations:
Determine if the observation is qualitative or quantitative.
Write a hypothesis and a null hypothesis.
What would be your experimental approach?
What are the dependent and independent variables?
What are your controls - both positive and negative?
How will you collect your data?
How will you present your data (e.g., chart, graph)?
How will you analyze your data?

THE WAR ON ALLERGIES SUPPOSE THAT 54.3 PERCENT of your country's population had cancer. That figure might set off a nationwide panic-a search for something wrong with people's diet, the environment, activity levels. In fact, that's the percentage of Americans who show a positive skin response to one or more allergens. A1 5 B The manifestations' of allergy-sneezing, itching, rashes-are signs of an une system running amok,2 attacking foreign invaders-allergens- that mean no harm. Allergens include pollen, dust mites, mold,...
