Because she likes the puppies so much she decided to make her experiment about them. Julie wrote a question that she could investigate when she was doing the experiment. Which of the following is an acceptable hypothesis for the experiment?
A. The puppies my dog had are cuter than the puppies my neighbor’s dog had.
B. If the puppies are separated from their mother, then they will turn into kittens.
C. If the puppies whine, then their mother will allow them to drink her milk.

- Bell work: A candy scientist was trying to create a lollipop dye that would cause a person’s mouth to turn blue for the longest period of time. He created three dyes and made 1 inch lollipops with them. He put 2 grams of the first dye into a lollipop, 4 grams of the second dye into another lollipop and 6 grams of a third dye into the last lollipop. The scientist had multiple people suck on the lollipops without chewing. After the people sucked the entire lollipop the scientist recorded how long their mouth stayed blue.
Can the results of this experiment be trusted? Explain the reasons behind your thinking.
