Yasir wants to determine if there is a relationship between room color and sleep. Based on his research, Yasir makes an educated guess that people fall asleep more quickly in a room painted blue than in a room painted yellow. He asks several people which color they like better—yellow or blue—and uses their responses to determine if his educated guess was correct. What is missing from Yasir's scientific investigation?

A testable hypothesis that is based on research
An experiment that directly tests the hypothesis
Variables to be tested by an experiment
Research on the topic to see what others have learned

Air pressure is measured in pascals. for a professional american football game, the ball should be inflated to about 90,000 pascals. scientists studied the effects of air temperature on the pressure inside american footballs by taking these steps: 1. prepare 100 footballs. 2. measure each football's air pressure. 3. divide footballs into 10 groups. 4. place the groups in different lockers cooled to different air temperatures. 5. after 12 hours, remove the footballs from lockers. 6. measure each football's pressure again. 7. compare the new pressures to the starting pressures. what two terms best describe the variable "air pressure inside the football" in this experiment? independent, qualitative independent, quantitative dependent, qualitative dependent, quantitative
