Section 1: What is Science?
This field of study is how we learn about the natural world
What is science?
The steps of the scientific inquiry process are Posing Questions, Developing a Hypothesis, Designing an Experiment, this, Drawing Conclusions and Communicating
What is Collecting and Interpreting Data?
A scientist should prepare for a laboratory experiment at this time
When is the day before?
A fork, an iPhone, and a pencil are all examples of this
What is technology?
The laboratory safety music video that we all seemed to love is a parody of this Dua Lipa song
What is New Rules?
Scientists use these three skills to learn about the natural world
What are observing, inferring, and predicting?
This is a possible explanation for a set of observations or to answer a scientific question, and MUST be testable
What is a hypothesis?
If you are unclear about any laboratory safety rules, you should do this
What is ask your teacher immediately?
The goal of this field of study is to change the natural world to suit human needs or solve a problem
What is technology?
These two important pieces of information are what every scientist should know at all times
What are the location and proper use of all safety equipment?
The five senses in which we as humans observe the world around us are hearing, sight, taste, touch, and this
What is smell?
In this occurrence, a scientist determines how one variable affects the outcome
What is a controlled experiment?
This does not end at the last step of your procedure
What is your lab work?
This is any factor that limits or restricts a design
What is a constraint?
This is the term for interpreting or explaining the information you have gathered through your observations
What is inferring?
These are the two types of observations we as scientists make
What are qualitative observations and quantitative observations?
This is the term for the facts, figures, and other evidence gathered through observations
What is data?
When performing a science lab, these should be your your chief concerns
What are the safety of yourself, your classmates, and your teacher?
This is an exchange in which one benefit is given up in order to obtain another
What is a trade-off?
This field of physical science focuses on the particles that make up matter and why different forms of matter have different properties
What is chemistry?
The saying, “Red sky night, sailor’s delight. Red sky morning, sailor’s warning” is an example of this scientific skill
What is predicting?
Giving talks at scientific meetings, exchanging information on the Internet, or publishing articles in scientific journals are all examples of this step in the scientific inquiry process
What is communicating?
This type of emergency can be treated by covering with a clean dressing and applying direct pressure
What is a cut?
This is the term for the purpose of technological systems
What is a goal?
"[Technology] can be a ________ with which to build or a ________ with which to destroy."
What is a tool and what is a weapon?
