The picnic was a potluck, and the foodwas served outdoors. Contributions included hamburgers, hot dogs, baked beans, potato chips,potato salad, coleslaw, apple pie, and vanilla ice cream.

Earl noticed that the potato salad he started to eat was warm.He also noticed that his hamburger was somewhat pink in the middle and not fully cooked. Earlwonders if eating the hamburgers or the potato salad could be responsible for making someattendees ill. Earl has begun to apply the scientific method to this common problem. Completeeach of the following tasks in 200 to 300 words.1. How would the scientific method help Earl create an experiment to determine which foodsources made people sick?2. Describe the steps of the scientific method Earl utilized3. Describe the remaining steps Earl will use if he decides to use the scientific method todetermine what made the people sick.
