What can be done if its not possible to construct a controlled experiment in order to test a hypothesis?

it is difficult to control all variables except the one being tested

∙ 12y agoIf the controlled experiment caused harm to humans (Not organisms such as bunny rabbits and dogs sadly) for example lets say i have a hypothesis that a factory chemical that was very dangerous had fumes that caused cancer. I could not bring in perfectly good humans and expose them to this chemical. Its against the law, now what u COOOUlld do is get a research ship and drive to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean where no laws apply its a freeman zone aka where pirates roam.

∙ 11y agoIf they can't do a controlled experiment chances are they're advanced and know what they're doing. Depending on the experiment itself, the scientist would have to come up with a procedure that doesn't involve a control. Although there may be no official control, they probably still compare the results to something.

Or wait for your predictions from hypothesis to be tested in the real world most Astronomy - for instance - is done this way!

Are hypothesis ever incorrect in an experimentation?
Yes. A hypothesis is a proposed explanation of some observable event. An experiment is designed to test if the hypothesis is possibly correct. Broadly speaking, there are three possible results of an experiment.The results are inconclusive (for example, the experiment was not designed well or some unplanned event occurred).The hypothesis is disproved (the experiment showed that the hypothesis was not a good explanation).The hypothesis is shown to be possible (a hypothesis can never be proven correct because the results could be caused by some factor not considered in the experiment).
What is a statement that presents the possible solution?
A statement that presents a possible solution to a problem is the hypothesis. You construct a hypothesis, then work to prove it. Basic geometry concentrates on proving various nypotheses.
What is a possible explanation or outcome for the experiment?
Hypothesis =)
For what do scientists use the data from a controlled experiment?
Whenever possible, a hypothesis should be tested by an experiment in which only one variable is changed at a time. All other variables should be kept untouched and unchanged. Scientists use the data from a controlled experiment to explain the steps and outcomes that produced their final product.

Is a controlled experiment always going to be possible?
No it will not be all ways possible.
