Answer:

The answer is- Identifying the question

Step-by-step explanation:

The Steps of a scientific investigation include;

  • Identifying a research question or problem,
  • Forming a hypothesis,
  • Gathering evidence,
  • Analyzing evidence,
  • Deciding whether the evidence supports the hypothesis,
  • Drawing conclusions
  • Communicating the results.

In undergoing a scientific investigation, one has to begin with asking questions. Sometime the questions could arise as a result of something observed or just out of curiosity. Asking questions can help to gather a list of involved parties and give hints or leads as to what is being investigated.

Questions are asked in order to gain more knowledge as regards what is being investigated.

The act of Brandon questioning people has completed the first part of the steps in scientific investigation which is identifying a research.
