Question 2 reflects a moral or social value.


Question 3 refers to something that can be measured.


Question 4 reflects a question that can’t be observed.

Answer 1

Answer;

Question 3 refers to something that can be measured.

Explanation;

• A scientific question is a question that may lead to a hypothesis and help us in answering the reason for some observation. A hypothesis is a tentative, testable answer to a scientific question.
• A good scientific question has certain characteristics. It should have some real answers, should be testable (i.e, it can be tested by another individual through an experiment or measurement), leads to a hypothesis that is falsifiable (i.e. it should generate a hypothesis that can be shown to fail), etc.
