In science class, maria observes a white-colored cut flower. she sees that the petals turn red when the flower is sitting in a vase that has red-colored water. she forms a hypothesis that the color reaches the flower through the stem. what should maria do to confirm the hypothesis?

A hypothesis refers to a suggested illustration for a phenomenon. For a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, there is a need to test it. Upon analysis, a hypothesis can be modified or rejected, but it can never be proved 100 percent accurate.  

A hypothesis needs more work by the individual testing it in order to either disprove or confirm it. A working hypothesis refers to a hypothesis, which is tentatively accepted as a foundation for a further research.

She should try the experiment with a potted plant with roots and observe any color changes

increase soil erosion                                             reduce soil erosion

cattle grazing                                                         hydroseeding

deforestation                                                         contour plowing

                                                                                planting vegetation

plant roots basically hold the top soil

together and stop soil erosion because

in such situation top soil is not removed

during flood but cattle grazing causes

soil erosion because cattle consume the

grasses and herbs and top soil is exposed.

same situation occurs because of

deforestation, the trees and plants are cut

down to expose top soil which causes soil

erosion
