It is known that many trees lose their leaves in response to decreasing day length. As a result, you think that Gingko trees may also lose their leaves in response to decreasing day length. This statement is an example of: deductive reasoning
	an experiment
	a theory
	a hypothesis

thomaster · Answer

The statement says "some" trees lose their leaves, when it would be "all" trees lose their leaves and therefore you'd say that the gingko tree also does this, it would be deductive reasoning

So I think it would be a hypothesis since it's your expectation.

it's for sure that it's not an experiment or a theory.
