B. Put forward a theory.
C. Formulate a hypothesis to test.
D. Gather and set up the required material.

A. Mass-flow hypothesis
B. Mendel’s laws of inheritance
C. Darwin’s theory of evolution
D. A student’s daily observations
3. A scientist investigates the effect of increasing calcium nitrate concentration on the height of two different species of plants at constant temperature. He then organises the data in graphical form.
While drawing the graph, which quantity must he take on y-axis?
A. Temperature
B. Height of plants
C. Species of plants
D. Concentration of calcium nitrate
4. A student extracts saliva (pH 7) from the mouth of a mammal, mixes it with some fine pieces of bread and keeps the mixture at 32°C. After three hours, a positive re

Answer:
Measure the time taken for amylase to completely break down starch, by withdrawing samples at 10 second intervals and noting the time at which the solution no longer gives a blue-black colour with iodine solution (but the iodine solution remains orange). Use buffers to provide solutions at different pHs. Calculate the rate of this enzyme controlled reaction by calculating

Answer:
1.gather and set up the required material
2. A student's daily observation
3. Concentration of calcium nitrate
4.The bread packed in the packet is composed of starch. Iodine gives blue color when it reacts with raw bread due to the presence of starch in it.
5. Once a theory has been tested thoroughly and is accepted, it becomes a scientific law
