My sister needs this answered!

Donald is creating an experiment to determine if fertilizer affects plant color. He makes this statement:

"If each plant receives a different amount of fertilizer,

then the plant's color intensity will change."

Donald's statement is a proposed general relationship between fertilizer amount and plant color. This statement is best described as:

1) an error.

2) a hypothesis.

3) a prediction.

4) a question.

Brandon Brennan · Answer 2

A hypothesis. a hypothesis is an if-then statement. if it was a prediction it would be something like "I think the color will change with different amounts of fertilizer" so it isn't a prediction
