NGSS.MS-PS2-5

The use of the 5 senses to gather information is called

• Data

• Inference

• Observation

• Experiment

NGSS.2-PS1-1

Which variable is changed in response to another variable and then measured/observed by the scientist?

• Test Variable

• Outcome Variable

• Controlled Variable

• All Variables

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS2-2

Which variable should always be the same during the entire experiment by the scientist?

• Test Variable

• Outcome Variable

• Controlled Variable

• All Variables

To make sure the results of an experiment are valid, the scientist

• Must change all of the variables at once

• Must check the internet

• Must repeat the experiment many times

• Must only get data that supports their hypothesis

Repeat of an observation or test

• Prediction

• Data

• Trial

• Hypothesis

he following statement about scientific hypotheses is true

• Hypotheses should be made after the investigation is completed

• Hypotheses are not based on knowledge

• If hypotheses are not supported, the experimental results are still valid

• If hypotheses fail, the experiment should be repeated until the scientist gets the results they want.
