Quantative or Quantifiable Measurements.
You can take some measure and get a number out. Length, Temperature, Area etc.
As opposed to Qualititive Measure - Happiness, anger etc you can't take a ruler to someones mood.
A collection of hypotheses that have been repeatedly tested and are supported by a great deal of evidence is called a scientific theory. Scientific theories integrate and summarize a wide range of observations and experimental results, providing a coherent explanation for a phenomenon. They are subject to continual testing and refinement as new evidence emerges.
An inference is a logical conclusion based on observations. A generalization is a logical conclusion based on many observations and data. The difference between the two is that inferences deal with specifics pertaining to the experiment being worked on, while generalizations are more "general" and apply more to the idea than the specific experiment.
The main branches are the physical sciences and the biological sciences. The physical sciences deal with the natural world we are in, while the biological sciences deal with living organisms. What they have in common is the scientific approach, which makes observations and measurements, forms theories and tests them against the observational evidence. Scientific theories (other than in mathematics) are not provable and a physical theory is judged by its ability to predict what will happen in particular circumstances when compared with observations. All theories can be replaced by better ones if and when they are discovered.

TRUE
Such observations are said to be quantitative.
This depends on what you are observing, but since number and amount are both measurements of quantity, they are somewhat interchangeable. Observations usually deal with both, because an observation is the action of observing something to collect information, and most information has to be quantified in order to be useful. And when quantifying something, a number or an amount has to be used.
Quantitative
Observations that deal with descriptions that cannot be expressed in numbers are called qualitative observations.
Quantitative
Quantitative
Qualitative observations
When observations deal with amounts or numbers, they are called quantitative observations. These observations involve measurable data that can be expressed numerically, allowing for statistical analysis and comparisons. Quantitative observations are essential in scientific research as they provide objective evidence that can be replicated and verified.
Qualitative (quantitative are observations that can be expressed numerically)
qualitive
Observations that deal with descriptions are called qualitative observations. They focus on the characteristics, qualities, and attributes of objects or phenomena, often using sensory details such as color, texture, and appearance. Unlike quantitative observations, which involve measurements and numbers, qualitative observations provide a more subjective understanding of the subject being studied.
Deal with a number, or amount.
