Joselyn · Answer 1

B, D, E

Explanation:

When determining if something could have a testable hypothesis you have to determine if you could test the hypothesis you come up with. An example hypothesis could be for B saying If I put different liquids in the freezer at the same time, then (liquid example) would freeze the fatest (or slowest) this is something you can test and can be measured by a test with data.

Deja · Answer 2

Testable hypotheses could be developed for questions B, D, and E.

The main problem with A and C is the word "better". This is a rubber word. It means different things to different people, and it can mean different things to the same person at different times. It's always a matter of opinion, it has no unique units of measure, and there is no concrete way to measure it. Not good for developing a testable hypothesis.
