Scientists use observations and inferences for many discoveries and conclusions in genetics. What is the difference between an observation and an inference?
An observation is what your senses tell you. An inference is what conclusion you draw as a result of the observation. For example, your observation is that when the blue litmus paper was put in the liquid it turned red. The inference is that the liquid is acidic (since that is when litmus paper turns red). We don't see that it is acidic, so that is not an observation; we just infer it from what we see.
