Respuesta :

3rd one....it states a guess...
Leaves may change color due to temperature...sensor you could set up an experiment to test this.

Answer:

Option C, Leaves may change color due to temperature

Explanation:

Hypothesis is basically an assumption which is then examined based on practical grounds and can be proven false or true with logical consequences. Ā 

Here, the assumption ā€œleaves may change color due to temperatureā€ is an assumption which can be tried and tested for establishing its ethnicity. Ā 

While all other statements such as ā€œobserve a plant kept in the darkā€ and ā€œadd different quantities of water to three potted plants ā€œ are Ā simple statements Ā in which something is being done/or asked to be done. While in statement ā€œadd different quantities of water to three potted plantsā€ is a question about a pre established fact and hence it cannot be considered as an assumption.

Thus, option C is correct.
