Intro to Integrated Science- FE IS

What is the first step in the scientific method?

• Make an observation or ask a question

• Draw a conclusion

• Create a hypothesis

• Perform an experiment

What is the purpose of graphing in science?

What are the three basic units of measurement in the metric system?

• foot, ounce, quart

• yard, kilogram, milliliter

• inch, pound, gallon

• meter, gram, and liter

What is the difference between independent and dependent variables in an experiment?

• Independent variables are not important in an experiment

• Dependent variables are manipulated by the experimenter

• Independent variables are the outcome or response that is measured

• Independent variables are manipulated by the experimenter, while dependent variables are the outcome or response that is measured.

What are the advantages of using the metric system in scientific measurements?

• It is difficult to learn and use

• It is not widely accepted internationally

• The metric system is outdated and inaccurate

• The advantages of using the metric system in scientific measurements include its ease of conversion, consistency, and widespread international use.

What is the significance of a control group in an experiment?

• It provides a baseline for comparison

• It has no impact on the experiment

• It is used to confuse the results

How do you convert between different units in the metric system?

• Guess and check

• Use conversion factors or unit conversion charts

• Use a magic spell

• Ask someone else to do it

What are the common prefixes used in the metric system and their respective meanings?

• giga- (G) for billionth

• deci- (d) for ten

• mega- (M) for millionth

• kilo- (k) for thousand, centi- (c) for hundredth, milli- (m) for thousandth

Why is it important to use standard units of measurement in scientific experiments?

• To waste time and resources

• To add unnecessary complexity to the process

• To make the experiments more confusing

• To ensure consistency and accuracy in scientific experiments.
