Summary Introduction
To review:
An experiment to test the hypothesis that the farmed salmon’s color is produced by pigments in their food.
Introduction:
The most productive and reliable way to study natural phenomena is by direct observation. The scientific method is an approach to acquire knowledge. Through scientific methods, the scientists observe the natural phenomena and develop an explanation about their observations. The explanations are then tested by gathering information. In a similar manner, the hypothesis that color of farmed salmon depends on their food can be tested.
