Our course
The Scientific Method
I'm experimenting with…
Of evolution and more
It's all about the levels
100

Number of lab practices throughout the semester.

3

100

First stage of the scientific method.

Observation

100

In an experiment, the variable that is changed by the researcher is called:

independent

100

Type of interaction between organisms in which they fight to survive and reproduce (one word)

competition

100

Group of organisms of the same species

population

200

Number of absences I'm allowed in this class with an average below 83.

6

200

Step that follows the creation of a hypothesis.

Experimentation

200

When answering cause-effect questions, this variable represents the cause.

independent

200

Random mistake in the DNA sequence. It can be beneficial, harmful, or neutral.

mutation

200

Group of different species living and interacting with each other in a common habitat

community

300

The Introduction section of the project will be handed in on the 2nd partial. (True or False)

TRUE

300

Step in which we decide whether or not our hypothesis was correct.

Conclusion

300

In an experiment, the variable that is measured by the researcher is called:

dependent

300

Element needed in Natural Selection so that some organisms in a population are different and can survive better than others.

variation/variability

300

It includes the biotic and abiotic factors in an environment

ecosystem

400

Partial project's percentage each partial.

30%

400

Step in which we compare our results with previous research done on the same subject.

Discussion

400

The group with which we compare the experimental results. (Two words)

control group

400

Process of survival and reproduction of individuals due to their differences, in which the fittest organisms leave the greatest number of descendants (Two words)

Natural Selection

400

Non-living chemical and physical parts of the environment that affect living organisms and the functioning of ecosystems (two words)

abiotic factors

500

Our partial project will be simulating this project from the IB diploma courses. (Two words)

Internal assessment

500

The most important characteristic of a good hypothesis is that it is…

testable

500

“If I sunbathe more, then I’ll produce more vitamin D”. Name the dependent variable.

produce vitamin D

500

It is the change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations during successive generations. Through inherited variability.

Evolution

500

The three domains into which life is classified.

Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya
