they come up with a hypothesis
Scientists do that because they are skeptical about other scientists' work. They do not usually believe what other scientists have concluded, so other scientists come up with a hypothesis (or simply state a question) as to contradict, or theorize why another scientists' work and conclusions are wrong. In short: Scientists are skeptical and do not believe what another scientist has come up with as a conclusion.
All of the procedures scientists use to answer questions are?
based on observation of what is wrong with the work of other scientists
By testing them.
Ones that are answered through observing
some of the questions scientists have about Mercury come from the limited knowledge we already have
This is hard to say, as it one of those questions that scientists do not know. I suggest you come up with your own conclusion :3
Scientists come up with models by trying to find a mathematical description of some phenomenon, which will give predictions that can be verified experimentally.
Scientist have come up with culling (killing) them.
Because science is fueled by questions. The point at which scientists stop asking questions is when science becomes a theology.
Scientists use the scientific method to answer questions and solve problems by making observations, forming hypotheses, conducting experiments, collecting data, and drawing conclusions. They also collaborate with other scientists to review findings and replicate experiments to ensure validity and reliability of results. Additionally, they use critical thinking and creativity to come up with new ideas and approaches to tackle complex questions.
First they study the subject, then they come up with questions that other people may want to know the answer to. After that, they use their studies and knowledge of physics to come up with a believable and reasonable way that something could be what they think it is.
They have to be naturally clever people.

Probably because the questions are meant as a joke.
Humans are curious. Curiosity is behind most questions.
All scientists ask questions, and test data
