Answer: Option A (You can record an observation; an inference is an idea based on the observations)

Explanation:

The observation is something that we derive from the experiment that we perform. Example: An experiment is performed to test whether there is a positive effect of sunlight on the growth of plants or not.

Some plants were kept in sunlight and some of them were kept in dark. It was observed that the plants grow more in the presence of sunlight.

This is the observation and sunlight has a positive effect on the growth of the plants is the inference that is given based on the idea of the observation.

If potatoes only grow in warm weather, why can we get them in the winter?
Ksivusya [100]
If you plant your potatoes in late August, while it is still hot, you may still have them in the cooler months after. Cool weather doesn't really harm potatoes, they can still grow then, it is only when it is frosty that potatoes die off. The foliage will die, but the potatoes will remain securely underground until you are ready to dig them out. Additionally, potatoes can be grown indoors so that you can always have them.

How are diffusion and osmosis different? A. Osmosis is the movement of proteins. Diffusion is the movement of water. B. Osmosis
stepladder [879]
The answer is B, osmosis is the movement of water. Diffusion is the movement to chemicals and molecules.

Both osmosis and diffusion are movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration of the substance moving to lower concentration down the concentration gradient. However, osmosis is only for the movement of water molecules, while diffusion is for any type of substances including liquid or gas. So we can also say osmosis is a type of diffusion actually.

And also, both of these movement of molecules does not require extra energy, they all happen due to natural tendency.

Jennie finds a correlation between marital satisfaction and sexual frequency. Based on this information, what conclusion should
faltersainse [42]

Correlation is the measure of the similarity in the trend of two variables or between the pattern of functional change between any two variables. A high correlation indicates that one variable follows the same pattern as the other variable does. However through correlation, one cannot say that the two variables are functionally related to each other. Example, pattern of weather change and change in population of humans. These two are not related but similarities in their pattern of change will wrongly indicate that there's a relation between the two. Similarly between marital satisfaction and sexual frequency, a correlation may mean that one varies like the other. However, marital satisfaction is also strongly depending on economical situation of the subjects, behaviour, complex emotions, etc. And the order of these variables will influence the marital satisfaction. Her findings are not useful in establishing any relationship between the two.
