What are the differences between children whose parents argue in their presence and those whose parents do not argue in their presence? D) There are many differences between children whose parents argue in their presence and those whose parents do not argue in their presence.

Answer 1

Children whose parents argue in their presence are more likely than other children to try illegal drugs.

Step-by-step explanation:

• A hypothesis is fundamentally a supposition. It is based on assumptions or claims that do not have concrete facts. A statement made through hypothetical assumption is indefinite yet it does not mean it is not incorrect.

• Researchers may make hypothetical assumptions before any concrete researches are done. For instance, "A room filled with incense may increase our mental and spiritual abilities." is a hypothetical statement.
• Similarly, "Children whose parents argue in their presence are more likely than other children to try illegal drugs." is also a hypothetical statement.
