What represents the initial phase of the scientific method?
Conducting experiments and collect data.
Developing a hypothesis.
Observing a phenomenon and identifying a problem.

How would you define a hypothesis within the scientific method?
The truth regarding the observed phenomenon.
An explanation that is not conclusive, so it will be tested.
A scientifically proven fact.
A conclusive research result.
Answer explanation
Después de definir qué es lo que vamos a investigar, tenemos que plantear una hipótesis. Es decir, plantear una primera idea (que, por tanto, no es definitiva), de lo que pensamos que va a ocurrir. A partir de ahí, haremos experimentos, observaciones… para ver si realmente sucede eso o no y poder sacar conclusiones.

What marks the concluding step of the scientific method?
Repeating the experiment

What is the objective of a control experiment?
Eliminate the need for a hypothesis
Exclude the variable under study and compare it with other experiments
Test multiple hypotheses simultaneously for a more complex experiment
Avoid data collection to simplify the experiment
Answer explanation
En el experimento control eliminamos la variable que estamos estudiando (por ejemplo, si estamos estudiando cómo influye la cantidad de sal en la temperatura de congelación de agua, eliminaremos la sal para el experimento control). De esta manera, veremos si el resto de variables están en buenas condiciones para llevar a cabo el experimento (por ejemplo, que el agua que estamos usando está en buenas condiciones y se enfría a la temperatura adecuada, por lo que podemos usarla en nuestro experimento).

How would you define a scientific theory?
A conjecture without evidence
An idea lacking foundation
An unscientific theory due to lack of proof
A widely accepted explanation based on strong evidence
Answer explanation
A diferencia de la hipótesis (esa primera idea inicial que teníamos y a partir de la cual hemos diseñado nuestros experimentos), la teoría se consigue al final del proceso, cuando aceptamos que algo es cierto tras un proceso de investigación.

What are the primary distinctions between fieldwork and laboratory work in scientific research?
Fieldwork involves controlled environments
Laboratory work is more difficult
Both answers are correct
No answer is correct
Answer explanation
En este caso, ninguna respuesta es correcta. El trabajo de campo (“fieldwork”) no tiene que ocurrir necesariamente en un campo. Más bien, ocurre fuera de un laboratorio, es decir, un sitio donde las condiciones se controlan mejor que en una habitación cualquiera, en la calle… etc. Es importante que los laboratorios tengan estas condiciones para que los experimentos no se estropeen.

Why is it crucial to refer to reputable books and trusted websites during scientific research?
To appear as a mature scientist
To impress with sophisticated language
It is not important, but everyone does it
To ensure the accuracy of your scientific work
Answer explanation
Siempre que hagamos un trabajo científico, es importante informarse antes para saber cuánto se conoce del tema hasta entonces. Para ello es importante mirar libros, revistas científicas, páginas web de confianza… que nos den una información relevante y rigurosa sobre lo que estamos analizando
