Scientific Method
The scientific method can be modeled as this shape
Circle, Web, Spiral
What are the 3 domains fo life?
What are Eubacteria, Archaea, Eukarya
This type of variable is one of which must be held constant between the control and experimental groups
What is a controlled variable?
This classification of life deals with complexity, the basic unit of life (the cell) and the 4 types of biomolecules.
What is order?
This is how you calculate total magnification.
Multiply the magnification of the objective by the eyepiece
An agreed truth about the natural world
What are facts/observations/data?
These two domains are made up of prokaryotic-type cells.
What are Bacteria and Archaea
This type of variable is the variable that we are testing.
What is an experimental variable or independent variable?
Viruses are not considered alive because of this
Lack of cells, lack of order, lack of 4 types of biomolecules
A well-tested explanation that unifies many observations
What is a scientific theory?
This is a potential explanation to a proposed question.
What is a hypothesis?
Humans are part of this domain.
What is Eukarya?
This variable is usually graphed on the x-axis
What is the independent or manipulated variable
This evolves
What are populations?
The drawing of a cell is this.
What is a model?
When data does not support a hypothesis, this is what we say
What is, reject the hypothesis?
The branch of biology that names and classifies species into groups of increasing breadth
Taxonomy
This variable is usually graphed on the y-axis
What is the dependent or responding variable?
Eating nectar is an example of this characteristic of life
What is energy processing?
An experimentally confirmed description of the natural world.
What is a scientific law?
This process ensures that results of scientific experiments are valid, objective and reproducible.
What is peer-review?
This is the history of the evolution of a species or group, especially in reference to lines of descent and relationships among broad groups of organisms.
What is phylogeny?
This is the group in your experimental design to which your experimental results are compared
What is the control group?
When an organism internally regulates its temperature, it is called this.
Maintaining homeostasis.
