Can someone please explain to me what in the hell this asking?

Have you ever observed what happens to a sports ball when it is left in the sun
all day, or left outside overnight? What questions could you ask about how a change in temperature
affects the air inside of a sports ball? The process of scientific inquiry often begins with questions
that can be answered by making observations. In today’s activity, you will be investigating how a
change in temperature affects a gas inside of a container. Write a question about how changing
temperature affects a gas. (Keep in mind, the question you ask must be one that can be answered
by making observations.)

As air heats up, air molecules occupy a larger area comparitively to cool air. To summerize, the ball will appear to be "more inflated."
