Answer: All of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

Technically, all of the above could be the best answer depending on what the question is specifically asking. The first option and the fourth option are both empirical experiments, meaning it is up to Jason’s interpretation on which flower he thinks is the prettiest or which vegetable tastes the best.

The second and third options are non-empirical or quantitative data- data that is factual and has very few if any personal interpretations. Jason cannot have an interpretation on which plant grew the tallest, he gets raw data by measuring the plant and that is his answer.


Jason can do all of these experiments but two are more opinion based and two are more factually based.
