Characteristics of Science
100

The study of all living things

Biology

100

A valid testable explanation, supported by data, for a situation

What is a Hypothesis?

100

Anything that has/once had all of the characteristics of life

What is Organism

100

Scientific notation puts very small or very big numbers into a decimal and uses this to express the number of zeros. 

What are Powers of 10?

100

Science is the body of knowledge based on the study of this.

Nature

200

The basic unit of mass in SI

Gram

200

Recognizing patterns in data, that can support the hypothesis or create additional questions and further experimentation.

What is Analyzing Data?

200

Inherited changes that occur over time to help a species survive

What is Adapt/Evolve?

200

This system established unit standards in 1960

What is SI, or the International System of Units?

200

Explanation of a natural phenomenon supported by observations and experiments over time.

Theory

300

A controlled experiment allows a scientist to isolate and test what?

What is a Single Variable?

300

These are reported to scientific journals after being peer reviewed, the final inferences of an experiment

What is Conclusions?

300

Maintaining balance within an organism 

What is homeostasis?

300

what are the 4 base units in SI  

Length = Meter

Mass = Gram

Volume = Liter

Time = Second

300

What is already known with evidence gathered from numerous experiments and observations

Evidence

400

Counted or Measured Data

What is Quantitative?

400

To test an effect, Control group gets Option A, while Experimental group gets Option B in an experiment.

What is an Independent (manipulated) variable?

400

all the structures work together to create an organism ( ex: atom to cells to organs)

What is Organization?

400

Convert 249 Milligrams to Dekagrams

What is .0249?

400

Most scientific fields are guided by constant re-evaluation of what is known. This search for new knowledge is the driving force that moves science forward

Expanding Scientific Knowledge
