What phrase describes a good scientific question?

Answer
A
has a wide focus
B
addresses a gap in knowledge
C
does not lead to a testable hypothesis
D
has a simple yes or no answer

Explanation

A good scientific question should help researchers learn something that is not yet known, so it addresses a gap in knowledge. It should also be focused enough to investigate and support a testable hypothesis. A wide focus or a question that cannot lead to a testable hypothesis makes research harder to carry out.
