Formulate a Hypothesis
Formulate a Hypothesis
Based on the background research and your defined problem, write a statement that predicts the outcome of the experiment. Â
Many hypotheses are stated in an “if . . . then†statement where the “if†statement pertains to the independent variable, and the “then†statement pertains to the dependent variable. For example, if plants are grown with different types of fertilizers, then the plants grown with Fertilizer A will show the greatest increase in biomass.
