scientific method
A comparative investigation is used to compare two or more things (in this case, spring vs summer temperatures and their effect on the duck sitting on eggs). An experimental investigation would involve manipulating a variable (not the case here as we are just comparing existing seasons). A descriptive investigation is just observing without comparison. The scientific method is a broader process, not a specific type of investigation here.
