Question

choose the correct answer. which of the following is the best example of a properly formatted hypothesis? plants grow better in sunlight. if the temperature increases, the rate of ice melting will also increase. the sky is blue.

Explanation:

A properly - formatted hypothesis is an if - then statement that predicts a relationship between variables. "If the temperature increases, the rate of ice melting will also increase" is in the correct if - then format and predicts a relationship between temperature and the rate of ice melting. "Plants grow better in sunlight" is a simple statement without the if - then structure, and "The sky is blue" is a fact, not a hypothesis.

Answer:

If the temperature increases, the rate of ice melting will also increase.
