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.

 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.
