Scientific Method
What is the first step in the Scientific Method
Ask a question
The variable we use to collect the data is called the
Dependent Variable
In an experiment how many groups are running at the same time?
two
How many variables should you change in an experiment at a time?
1
In step four of the scientific method we record our data in what type of graph?
Scatter plot
The variables in an experiment that stay the same are called
controls/constants
The group that gets no change is called the
control group
No
In step two of the scientific Method we from a ___________________ using an "if-then" statement.
Hypothesis
The variable that you change as the experimenter is called
Independent Variable
The experimental group is the group that get which variable?
The independent variable
yes
What is step three of the Scientific Method?
Run the experiment
