Answer: D) recording the high and low temperature at a particular location every day.

Step-by-step explanation:

A experiment is a process which is conducted or performed to either support, refute or validate the hypothesis. It involves the detail repeatable procedure and the logical analysis of the outcomes of the results. It involves different variables which are compared to obtain the outcome of the experiment. For example the amount of water used everyday responsible for the plant height.

Among the options given, D) recording the high and low temperature at a particular location every day. is the correct option, temperature is a variable in the experiment. The change in the daily temperature of a location can be noted as observation of the experiment. This observation can be used to record the average temperature of the location.
