The 7-month-old infant is accustomed to having the perineal area exposed and cared for and is not in a developmental stage in which fears related to sexuality are present. A "clean catch" at this age is often contaminated; therefore catheterization has been prescribed. The parents do have the right to refuse, but this concern is not realistic an infant of this age. The parent's concern is not appropriate for the developmental age of the infant.

A science class is checking to see how much life exists in local streams. One of the students records that 20 amoeba were found
Naya [18.7K]
What this student is doing is collecting data. So, he wants to check how many life forms there are in the waters nearby. In order to do so, he has to take a sample, and look at it through a microscope so as to determine the number. So, he collected a sample which is his data. He is not drawing conclusions yet, but rather counting these organisms. He is not making a peer review - his peers aren't even mentioned here. He is not forming a hypothesis because he is just counting at this point.
