The purpose of graphs, charts and tables is to

• help scientists visualize results from an experiment.
• make the experiment look nice.
• practice what I learned in Math class.
• Practice my drawing skills.

Francis was recording plant heights for an experiment. Each time that she took a measurement, she wrote it down. Then, she measured the plant again and compared the new measurement to the one that she had recorded in her notebook. What was she most likely trying to do?

• revise her hypothesis

  check her memory

  make the data more valid

  form a conclusion

• check her memory

• make the data more valid

• form a conclusion
