300
Tennis shoes, flats, boots
What type of shoes are needed in a lab?
300
Dependent Variable
Which variable is measured?
300
An educated guess about the outcome of your experiment.
What is a hypothesis?
300
This can be done by creating graphs, taking notes, recording information, and/or drawing
How can scientists analyze data?
400
Looking at everyday objects and events and noticing similarities and differences
What are observations?
400
You need these to protect your eyes in a lab
What are safety goggles?
400
Independent Variable
Which variable is manipulated by the scientist?
400
The steps/directions in an experiment that the scientist follows
What are procedures?
400
The results of an experiment and the explanation of whether the hypothesis was supported or not
What is a conclusion?
500
A type of observation that includes a possible reason to why the the object is behaving in that manner.
What is an inference?
500
Chemicals and substances that can burn and break down skin or other types of matter
What are corrosive agents?
500
Constants
All other factors that must stay the same in an experiment for both the control and experimental groups
500
Doing this will determine if there were any mistakes in the experiment and if your hypothesis is supported or not
Why are multiple trials of an experiment needed?
500
In order to help other scientists learn from each other and to allow them to create the same experiment and compare results
Why is it necessary/important for scientist to share their conclusion?
