Scientist use a lot of skills to study thing ,some of them are observing,classifying,inferring,predicting, and making models.Using all of those skills scientists learn all about the thing they study.For example I observed enigma box,one of the skills I used was predicting.I predicted that when 450ml. of water gets pored into the box the water will start leaking out and that's what happened.

I observed an enigma box which looks like a big black box with big and little hole on one side and one small hole on the other.I also observed that the water didn't come out till 450ml pored inside which means that the water needed some pressure.At first the water was coming out real slowly then it got faster and it slowed again. that means the pressure started out slowly then it kept on going and finally it ran out of water.This also tells me that the inside must be a tube.


I think the inside of enigma box is a long tube that gives the water pressure and that's how it works.I also guess the tube must be think in order to fit 450ml or more.The inside must also be filled in with plastic that covers all the room around the tube.I think the inside must be black just like the out side and the tube is just clear like the one i saw in class.Basically it is a big black box with a tube inside of it.
In conclusion the enigma box is a long,thick tube folded in half.One end is on the top and the other end of the tube is on the bottom.There is a lot more pressure inside of the box when out side of it.This is way the water keeps going around till it leeks out.
