Question

Kiara has a red bird feeder, and her neighbor has a blue bird feeder. Kiara observed that most birds go to her neighbor's blue

feeder instead of her red one. She wanted to know why this happens, so she developed the following hypothesis:
"If my bird feeder is blue, then the amount of birds feeding at my feeder will increase because birds prefer the color blue."
To test this hypothesis, she bought a blue bird feeder. The results were the same as before she had changed the color of her
bird feeder.
What does this say about Kiara's hypothesis, and what should she do next?
Her hypothesis was probably accurate. She should change the color of the feeder until she gets the results she wants.
Her hypothesis was probably inaccurate. She should ask her neighbor not to hang her bird feeder any more.
Her hypothesis was probably inaccurate. She should conclude that the birds are not at her feeder for another reason.
Her hypothesis was probably accurate. She should borrow her neighbor's bird feeder.

Answer 1

C. Her hypothesis was probably inaccurate. She should conclude that the birds are not at her feeder for another reason.

Answer 2

Her hypothesis was probably inaccurate. She should conclude that the birds are not at her feeder for another reason.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The colour of the feeder is not the reason because even after changing the colour of the feeder to blue , the birds are not attracted to Kiara's feeder. Thus, it is clear that colour is not an interest for the birds.

• Secondly, we can draw a conclusion to the fact that blue colour is not the factor because Birds have a strong sense about Red and orange colour, which is evident from the adaptation of ornithophilous flower which are red, Yellow or Bright orange in colour. Thus if we consider colour as a factor of attraction then the bird's should have come to Kiara's red bird feeder.
