   It’s a reasonable Topic, Ladybug, but until it makes a claim that is arguable and researchable, it isn’t a Hypothesis.

   What do I mean by that?
   Suppose I suggested that heavy caffeine consumers (coffee and energy drinks combined) did in fact gain energy and short bursts of productivity gains, but that over the course of a semester, the negative effects of caffeine and withdrawal plus disruptions to the sleep cycle made caffeine consumers LESS productive.

   That makes a deep and specific claim about your topic that could be researched and argued and would serve as a Hypothesis to get started. Does that help as an illustration?

     1.) People who heavily consume caffeine gain energy from the productivity that is gained.
     2.) The effects of caffeine on people who experience withdrawals
     3.) Effects of your sleeping cycle from coffee being less productive
     4.) Caffeine as a source of money.
     5.) Hyperflaxction of your brain running in Java(coffee)

   I’m happy to see your Hypothesis post is getting more specific, LadyBug. There are good examples here of the SEVERAL effects of coffee on the drinker.

   It doesn’t end with A HYPOTHESIS though.
   “People who heavily consume caffeine gain energy from the productivity that is gained” is the closest thing to a Hypothesis in this list.

   After that, you express interest in other topics.

   The assignment page started with:
   1. concussions in football

   and ended with:
   6. Eliminating helmets from NFL games would reduce concussions more than helmet improvements by making players very reluctant to engage in the most dangerous plays.

   If I can trust the direction you’re heading with this and ignore the details in between, I would guess you’re trying to get to something like:

   6. Caffeine increases maximal heart rate and vasoconstriction in inactive areas of the vascular system.

   But I’m just wildly guessing because I can’t find any evidence that your word Hyperflaxction exists.
