What is an experimental group? Hint: It has the manipulated variable.
The group that you purposely change something in, in an experiment.
100
What are the metric base units for measuring.
Meter (m) for distance, Gram (g) for weight, Liter (l) for volume, C for temperature
100
Define an inference. Give an example.
What is an assumption about something based on your observations. Ex: She is happy, because I see her smiling.
100
Identify this step of the scientific method. She decided to conduct an experiment to see if the location in the greenhouse would affect plant color.
What is purpose and problem?
200
Name and review the tool that is used to measeure weight and know how to use it.
Electronic scale
200
What is a manipulated variable? Give an example.
The thing you purposely change in an experiment. Changing the height of a ramp.
200
What are the abbreviations for milligram, gram, millimeter, and centimeter
mg = milligram, g = gram, mm = millimeter, and cm = centimeter
200
Define qualitative observation. Give an example.
What is an observation about the qualities of something. ( Texture, shape, color ) It has a rough surface.
200
Identify this step of the scientific method. She arranged her information into a chart.
What is data?
300
Name and review the tool used to measure temperature and know how to use it.
Thermometer
300
What is a responding variable? Give an example.
The response to the manipulated variable in an experiment. It's what you measure. How fast the ball rolls down the ramp.
300
What are the abbreviations for degrees celcius, micrometer, milliliter,
C = degrees celcius, um = micrometer, and mL = milliliter
