Science and engineering are related to everyday life through:

technological advancements and innovations

artistic expressions and creativity

historical events and timelines

mythological stories and legends

Science and engineering play a role in defining explanations and solving problems by:

providing empirical evidence and systematic approaches

focusing only on theoretical concepts

Engineers use science and math to solve problems or meet needs by:

Applying scientific principles and mathematical techniques

Avoiding mathematical calculations

Why is asking good questions considered a driving force in science?

Because it leads to new discoveries and understanding.

Because it is a requirement for scientific funding.

Because it is a tradition in scientific communities.

Because it helps in memorizing scientific facts.

How can specific and measurable questions lead to ideas that can be tested and rejected?

By providing clear criteria for evaluation

By making the process more complex

By limiting the scope of research

By increasing the number of variables

In what ways can questions be used to challenge the premise of an argument or to clarify text or models?

By asking for clarification or further explanation

By providing evidence to support the argument

By agreeing with the argument without question

By ignoring the argument altogether

Identify some advantages and limitations of models.

Models provide a simplified representation of reality, making complex systems easier to understand, but they may oversimplify and miss important details.

Models are always accurate and provide a complete understanding of complex systems.

Models are only useful in theoretical scenarios and have no practical applications.

Models eliminate the need for real-world testing and experimentation.

Two considerations when planning and carrying out an investigation are:

Ethical considerations and safety measures

Time management and resource allocation

Hypothesis formulation and data collection

Data analysis and report writing

It’s important to peer review data because:

it ensures accuracy and reliability.

it makes the data more complex.

it reduces the need for further research.

it limits the data to a specific audience.

Explain how functions depicted on graphs describe relationships and can be depicted using equations.

Functions on graphs show relationships and can be represented by equations.

Graphs and equations are unrelated to functions.

Functions cannot be depicted using graphs or equations.

Graphs only show data, not relationships.

Why is it important for professional scientists to use communication skills daily?

To effectively share research findings and collaborate with others

To improve their public speaking skills

To write more scientific papers

Citing resources that have contributed to the work is considered essential and ethical because:

it gives credit to the original authors and avoids plagiarism.

it makes the work look more professional.

it is a requirement for all academic papers.

it helps in increasing the word count of the document.

Identify each scientific and engineering practice and give an example of how each one might be used in an investigation.

Scientific and engineering practices are used to develop models and conduct experiments.

Scientific and engineering practices are not used in investigations.

Scientific and engineering practices are only theoretical concepts.

Essential Question: How do scientists and engineers define explanations and solve problems?

By using the scientific method and engineering design process

By using intuition and experience
