Flower color Which of the following hypothesis could be tested by this experiment? a. If presented with different kinds of plants then honeybees prefer rose plants, because they smell better. b. If honey bees are presented with different colors of flowers then they will visit red flowers more, because the color is attractive. c. I predict honeybees will visit more flowers in the morning, because they are more active then. d. I predict honeybees will be more attracted to red flowers because that color is more attractive to them. Which of the following is the best reason why the Portland rose plant is included in all of the groups to be studied? a.This type of plant is a control variable, any type of plant could be used as long as they are all the same. b.The experiment will test whether bees prefer the Portland rose over other flowers. c. An experiment should always have more than one variable being tested. d. The Portland rose is a common plant, which, makes it easier to test. Give the measurement of the nail in cm.
