100
Technology is the use of knowledge, processes and products to do this.
What is solve problems?
100
These legs are similar to real legs.
What are prosthetic legs?
100
You should do this after you identify a problem.
What is research?

200
Scientists use these to secretly get information about other animals.
What are robotic animals?
200
You should do this before you choose one solution.
What is develop possible solutions?
200
A robotic arm mimics this part of the human body.
What is an arm?
300
This substance smells like candy and makes a very sticky glue.
What is gelatin?
300
MRI's are safer than X-rays, because they don't produce this.
What is radiation?
300
Some robots that explore the ocean mimic this kind of animal.

This step happens after developing possible solutions.
What is choosing a solution?
300
Prosthetic hands should be able to these 3 things.
What are move, grab and pick up?
400
We only changed one thing in each kind of glue. When you change something in an experiment, it is called this.
What is a variable?
400
Computers are made smaller and more affordable with these.
What are microchips?
400
An engineer should build this kind of prototype to mimic a human leg. (computer, mathematical, invisible, or physical)
What is a physical prototype?

DAILY Double!!!!
This is why engineers evaluate their prototypes and their results after testing.
400
The fastener on your robotic arm mimics this.
