convection
does replication or repetition increase validity in the experiment
repetition
what is deposition
sediment settling in one place
what is the independent variable of an experiment
the variable being changed or manipulated
what is the inner core made of
solid metal
what is repetition in an experiment
performing multiple trials within the same experiment
what is the most important part of a scientific experiment
that one variable is manipulated the independent variable
what is compaction
the pressing together of sediments under pressure
what is the dependent variable of an experiment
the variable that is being measured
Which layer of the earth is found entirely in the lithosphere?
The crust
what is replication
repeating the entire experiment already performed
