Answer 1

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options for that question. The options are:

"What would be the next step in this experiment?  A. construct a hypothesis and record data . B. make observations and draw a conclusion . C. ask questions and construct a hypothesis . D. analyze the results and make a conclusion."

Answer:

D. analyze the results and make a conclusion

Explanation:

The student already made the observation when she noticed that other fruits placed near bananas ripen earlier. After that, the student created a hypothesis, when asked if the banana had any influence on the ripening of other fruits. Then the student established an experiment where she could test this hypothesis and from that, registered some data, which are the result of her experiment. What she must do now is to analyze this data and conclude whether the banana really influences the ripening of other fruits or not.
