Answer:
Hypothesis: IF the perfumes contained Ester "X", THEN the bees would be agitated
Control group: The control group would be the group of bees that did not receive any perfume treatment
Experimental group: Bees that were exposed to the different perfumes
Independent variable: The type of perfumes
Dependent variable: the behavior of the bees
Explanation:
An hypothesis is a testable explanation or suggested solution to a problem that is subject to testing (for proving or disproving) via experimentation. The hypothesis of this experiment will be: IF the perfumes contained Ester "X", THEN the bees would be agitated
The control group of an experiment is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment or the group whose independent variable is not changed. In this case, there is no stated control group but control group of this particular experiment could be the BEES THAT WERE NOT EXPOSED TO ANY PERFUME.
The experimental group, as opposed to the control group, is the group that receives experimental treatment. In this case, it is the group of bees that were exposed to the different types of perfumes.
In an experiment, the variable that is deliberately changed by the experimenter is called the independent variable. The independent variable in this question is the TYPE OF PERFUME given to the bees.
The variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable is called the dependent variable. The dependent variable, which is the measured variable, is THE BEHAVIOR OF THE BEES.
