Which of these are testable hypotheses?
1. Increasing numbers of deformities such as the extra limbs that have been noted in many frog populations in North America are caused by infection by trematodes (parasitic flatworms).
2. People with strong religious beliefs live more meaningful lives.
3. People are more likely to survive cancer if they have a positive attitude.
4. Humans and chimpanzees diverged from a common ancestor that lived 5–7 million years ago.
5. Corn seedlings grow more quickly when people talk to them.
