Observation: You saw/ observed something and you are stating that.

Inference: You are predicting something to be true. If so and so, then this will occur.

Answer:

observation

Explanation:

Through an observation information is acquired. The acquiring of information must be through the five senses directly or indirectly. When a person takes an observation using eyes it is a form direct observation. When a person takes an observation using scientific instruments it is a form indirect observation.

Inference is the deduction of observations taken.

Here, the sun rose at 6:54 this morning is an observation i.e., a person saw the sun rise at 6:54. It has not been deduced that the sun rose at 6:54.
