Students are asked to conduct two investigations. The first investigation uses scientific practices to find out how birds glide in the air. The second investigation uses engineering practices to design a plane that would glide easily in the air. Select the practices that would only be used in the second investigation. Choose all that apply.

• Use a model to make a prediction.

• Use a model to test a solution to a problem.

• Ask questions and seek answers in a systematic way.

• Define a problem and look for a solution in a systematic way.

• Clearly define a need and the criteria or constraints for the solution.
