iragen [17]

The experiment conducted by Paul was not a waste of his time and resources even though he could not accomplish the experiment he initially prepared to conduct. The reluctance of the penguins to eat burgers even though they were starving and losing weight pointed towards the fact that they do not find junk food appealing. It could be concluded from their reluctance that they will eat only their normal diet rather than something they have never eaten before.

What happens when a hypothesis is not supported
Temka [501]
<span> For a start, when you have a question that needs answering in science, you formulate a null hypothesis. That is a negative statement which you then set out to prove or disprove. This is just a convention. So if your initial question is for example, "Does sugar dissolve in water?"

Your null hypothesis will be "Sugar does not dissolve in water."
You then set up your experiment and get some data.

Now if your data doesn't support your null hypothesis then you reject it and make the statement ,"Sugar does dissolve in water." As you can see from this simple example, a non-result is still a result so the idea of formulating new tests as mentioned by another answerer isn't necessary and in some ways is the incorrect thing to do. In science, hypotheses are often not supported by data and i would argue that this is the case a lot of the time. A non-result is still a result and you will have plenty to write about whichever way it goes. </span>

Sladkaya [172]

D. The reaction will release energy the organism can use to do work.

Explanation:

A negative ∆G means that the products have less free energy than their reactants. This energy had to go somewhere, it can't just disappear. That means that 255kJ of energy was released, turning into free energy for the organism to use for work.
