The investigative question that would lead to the collection of data that can be represented by a scatterplot is:
**"How do the hours of sunlight a plant receives affect its growth?"**
This question establishes a relationship between the independent variable (hours of sunlight) and the dependent variable (plant growth), allowing for the collection of paired data points that can be plotted on a scatterplot to examine the correlation between the two variables.
**"How do the hours of sunlight a plant receives affect its growth?"**
