Question

23. Which of the following is an inference?A. You measure a plant’s height every day for a week.B. You give a plant the same amount of water every day.C. After watching a plant for a week, you determine it needs more water.

Answer 1

By definition inference means to deduce, therefore the first option makes no sense as is not stated the reason why the plant is being measured o what this measure indicates, the second option falls into the same issue as the previous one there is no explanation of why or how this indicates something, therefore we can say that the correct option is the third one (C) as there is a process of observation and a conclusion draw from this observation.
