Aim: How to develop a proper hypothesis ? Writing a Hypothesis Aim: How to develop a proper hypothesis ?

PART A: Writing a HYPOTHESIS For each of the following problems develop a hypothesis in the “if….then” form For example: Question: Do plants need light to grow? If a plant gets _________________ then it will ______________. Hypothesis: If a plant gets light then it will grow more.

Now it’s your turn to try to formulate/write a correct hypothesis using “if….then” for each question below. 1. Does music increase students’ ability to do math problems? 2. Does exercise increase heart rate? 3. How does salt concentration affect the hatching of brine shrimp? (concentration=amount) 4. Does acidity of soil affect plant growth?
