Reflect on the learning activities titled “Hypothesis”, “Variables and Hypothesis” and “Constructing a Hypothesis”. Describe some similarities and differences between a question that comes in response to an observation, and a scientific research question? Cite quotes from the readings to support your answer. Where do variables fit into this thinking? In other words, if you imagine a number line with observation questions at one end and scientific research questions at the other, what role do variables play anywhere along this continuum?
