This variable is the one that the scientist changes "first" to see if the outcome of your experiment is effected.
What are independent or manipulated, dependent or responding, and the control or constant
100
Anything a scientist notices during a scientific investigation.
What is observation/ an observation ?
100
Why would scientists change their minds about how the world around us works.
What is they get new information?
100
State the problem: Tommy puts his pencil into the electric pencil sharper and nothing happens.
What is why doesn't the pencil sharper work?
100
When using the scientific method, the same results seem to be repeated and occur many times. A conclusion or inference might then be accepted as this.
What is a theory?.
200
The variable that you are looking at to see if or how changes will effect it.
What is dependent or responding variable?
200
Anything that you can change or that might change or that should be kept the same for both the control and experimental parts of an investigation .
What is a variable?
200
In this step of the scientific method a scientist will put their hypothesis to the test.
What is perform an experiment ?
200
A series of steps used by scientists/people to help find solutions to problems and/or questions.
What is the scientific method?
200
Why scientists repeat an experiment multiple times.
What is increase reliability and compare results?
300
These variables are kept the same throughout the entire experiment so that scientists may know that one the independent variable has effected the dependent variable.
What are the constant variables ?
300
A judgement that follows and is based on the results of analyzing the data an experiment, and share their findings with those around them as well as the scientific community as a whole.
What is conclusion ?
300
In this step of the scientific method a scientist will use the information at hand to predict and create a statement that they may test to solve a problem.
What is hypothesis?
300
Something that a scientist uses to organize their data into rows and column for easy use.
What is data table or chart ?
300
Form a hypothesis: Would planting a dead fish with a flower make it grow faster?
What is ...If I plant a dead fish with a flower then it will grow faster and bloom better...?
400
The number of independent (manipulated) variables that should be adjusted or changed in a "valid" experiment.
What is only ONE variable ?
400
A type of data or observation that describes a variable with words using the five senses.
What is qualitative data or observation?
400
Why is it important to put the hypothesis in an "If, Then" statement.
What is helps scientist identify the independent (manipulated) variable and the dependent (responding) variable?
400
A experiment with 2 or more independent (manipulated) variables and all other variables controlled.
What is a unfair or invalid test?
400
Early Native Americans believed planting a dead fish with a flower make it grow faster. If you preformed this experiment, this would be the dependent or responding variable.
What is grow faster and bloom better ?
500
This group is used on subject (A) in the following word problem. One test subject (A) is sprinkled with the original itching powder, and another test subject (B) was sprinkled with the new Experimental itching powder.
What is the control group?
500
All good conclusions need to include what 6 parts?
What is restate the problem, give the major data or results, tell how they support hypothesis, evaluate how they compare to others, give a possible explanation, and suggest new recommendations?
500
The first step of the scientific method.
What is the purpose or problem ?
500
This step includes using the information and observations that were gathered to ask more questions or graph results to study closely.
What is analysis ?
500
Early Native Americans believed planting a dead fish with a flower make it grow faster. If you preformed this experiment, this would be the control group.
