Explanation:

Accordingly, an inference is made when after watching a plant for a week, you determine that it needs more sunlight. This was a conclusion based on data.

Not all inferences offer true conclusions, even with data analysis. It is possible to state that all dogs are furry animals with four legs, but it cannot be inferred that all furry animals that have four legs are dogs.

Inferences usually arise from an analysis of characteristics and probabilities. If someone makes reference to an animal with four legs, hairy and wagging its tail, it can be inferred that the most certain thing is that it is referring to a dog.
