Question

the passage below describes an experiment. lola activated three batches of yeast for a bread recipe. for the first batch, she mixed one teaspoon of yeast with 110°f water. for the second batch, she mixed one teaspoon of yeast and 100°f water. for the third batch, she mixed one teaspoon of sugar and 100°f water. with each batch of yeast, she mixed one teaspoon of sugar and 90°f water. lola used the following the same recipe to make a loaf of bread. when the bread had finished baking, she measured the height of each loaf. identify the question that the experiment can best answer. does the temperature of the water when activating yeast affect the height of the resulting loaf of bread? does the temperature of the water when activating yeast affect how brown the resulting loaf of bread becomes?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify variables

Independent variable is water - temperature for yeast activation; dependent variable is bread - loaf height.

Step2: Analyze questions

The first question about browning is not related to the variables in the described experiment setup. The third question about water - temperature and browning is also off - topic. The second question about water - temperature and bread - loaf height aligns with the experiment's variables and setup.

Answer:

The question that the experiment can best answer is: Does the temperature of the water when activating yeast affect the height of the resulting loaf of bread?
