Explanation:

In a scientific investigation, the process of investigation begins with making an observation. The observation is made by measuring the variables based on which the observation is divided into two types: qualitative and quantitative measurements.

After the observation is made, a scientific question is asked and background research is done based on which the scientific hypothesis is predicted and proposed which explains the phenomenon to a limited extent.
