Formulation Testing of Hypothesis in Scientific Investigations What is a hypothesis? Posing a question ? Proposing a hypothesis A tentative explanation Why need a hypothesis? If the hypothesis is correct, we should observe xxx when a certain test is conducted [predictions] ? This guides us to plan observations or design experiments A question that asks “why” usually requires a hypothesis. A question that asks “what is the relationship / how to be affected ” usually requires making objective observations. ? No hypothesis is needed. What hypothesis should be put forward for the following investigations? Do we need to suggest a hypothesis for the following questions? What is the W.P. of potato cells? Why does a potato become more soft after storing for a long time? Do we need to suggest a hypothesis for the following questions? What is the optimum temperature for salivary amylase? Why is salivary amylase still very active at 70oC? Do we need to suggest a hypothesis for the following questions? What is the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis? Why does the rate of photosynthesis becomes constant with increase in light intensity when the light intensity is high? What food constituents are present in peanut, banana, grape, potato and biscuit? Hypothesis: I think that peanut, banana, grape, potato and biscuit all have proteins and lipids. What is the respiration rate of mealworms? Hypothesis: I think that the respiration rate (oxygen uptake) is constant. What is the transpiration rate of a plant outside and inside the laboratory? Hypothesis: The plant outside the lab should have a higher transpiration rate than the plant inside the lab. What is the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis? Hypothesis: The photosynthetic rate rises with increase in light intensity. What is the osmotic potential of the cell sap in red onion epidermal cells? Hypothesis: When 50% of the observed cells is plasmolysed, the O.P. of the cells is
