Question

the passage below describes a process of scientific inquiry. select the part of the passage that describes revising the hypothesis. hint: to revise the hypothesis, you use the results of the investigation to come up with a new explanation. rock candy on sticks larry likes to make rock candy to share with his friends. he normally makes rock candy using white sugar but wondered if he could make larger sugar crystals using pure cane sugar. he predicted that pure cane sugar would make the largest crystals, since it was a more pure form of sugar. larry set up 12 glass jars with a stick and hot water. he added white sugar to 6 jars and pure cane sugar to the other 6. after one week, larry measured the size of the sugar crystals in each jar. he found that the rock candy made with white sugar had larger crystals than those made with pure cane sugar. he then predicted that smaller sugar granules would lead to larger sugar crystals.

Explanation:

The initial hypothesis was that pure cane sugar would make the largest crystals. After the investigation showed white - sugar made larger crystals, Larry formed a new prediction about sugar granules. This new prediction is the revised hypothesis.

Answer:

He then predicted that smaller sugar granules would lead to larger sugar crystals.
