Scientific Method

The summary at the end of an experiment that explains the results is... 

• conclusion
• procedures
• materials
• responding variable

A prediction or guess based on observations.

• data
• scientific process
• hypothesis
• question

A series of steps used by scientists to solve a problem or answer a question. 

• scientific method
• recipe
• data collection
• metric system

The information you collect while doing your experiment is called

• conclusions

• data

• hypotheses

• procedures

The variable that is being measured or observed is called the _______________. Hint: this is the variable that is the result or effect

• independent variable

• dependent variable

• control variable

The independent variable is

• The variable that you change in an investigation

• The variable that you measure in an investigation

• A variable that you keep the same in an investigation

A testable prediction about a scientific investigation is a(n)

• Question
• Observation
• Hypothesis
• Experiment

For a graph, we need

• A title

• Axis labelled with units

• Independent variable on x-axis, dependent on y-axis

• All of the above

What are constant variables in an experiment?

• Things that do not change in a experiment. It's the variable that stays the same. You can have many variables stay the same.

• It's the variables that the scientist changes in the experiment

• It's the variables that are being measured in an experiment

An explanation based on repeated experimentation with the same results and data

• law

• theory

• hypothesis

• experiment
