premise: Measure<br>John wanted to know how dogs could find electronic devices. He set up a test to measure the chemicals off-gassed by plastic. John used a sensitive device that could detect odors. He found plastic devices gave off a certain chemical as they decayed. John published his research in an esteemed science journal.
hypothesis: John proved that plastic emits a certain odor as it decays and that is how dogs can find electronic devices
reason: The text stated that dogs can find electronic devices since they emit an odor, so my statement was correct
