Inference is a word for an interpretation of an observation
That is an observation. An inference would be that, if no one answers the doorbell, then no one is home, which may or may not be true.
Observations
"The weather is cold" is an observation because it is something you can feel. An inference is something you decide or think about an event after observing it. For example "The temperature must have dropped."
The two parts of a hypothesis are the null hypothesis, which states that there is no significant difference or relationship, and the alternative hypothesis, which suggests that there is a significant difference or relationship between variables.
Inference is a logical interpretation. Observation is using your senses.
Inference is a logical interpretation. Observation is using your senses.
An observation is looking and comprehending what you see, smell, feel, taste, or hear. An inference is making an educated guess on what you observed.
With an observation, you simply take note of your surroundings or what you happen to notice. In an inference on the other hand, the observations are then analyzed and a conclusion is made.
Observation is the act of noticing and recording something that has been directly perceived. Inference involves making logical conclusions based on observations and prior knowledge. Prediction is a statement about what will happen in the future based on observations, inferences, and patterns.
An observation is when a person observes something they are studying and and inference means to draw a conclusion based on an observation.HOPE THIS HELPS :)
state why an observation cannot be 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.

Observation and inference are the same thing
I think An observation about that inference is about that object.
observation is observation! :)inference is inference! :)Assuming you meant "Differentiate observation from inference ?" !....Observation is the act of being able to physically see an object - inference is implying something is real without physical proof of its existence.Incidentally - why was this put into the category 'animal life' !
