Apple is the most popular fruit.

Apple and banana are equally popular.

In an experiment testing whether sunlight affects plant growth: One constant is:

Amount of water given to the plants

The difference between qualitative and quantitative data is:

Qualitative data describes qualities or characteristics, while quantitative data involves numbers and measurements.

Qualitative data is always numerical, while quantitative data is descriptive.

Quantitative data cannot be measured, while qualitative data can be counted.

Qualitative data is used for calculations, while quantitative data is used for opinions.

It is important to have constants in an experiment because:

they ensure that only the variable being tested affects the outcome.

they make the experiment more complicated.

they allow for more variables to be tested at once.

they guarantee the experiment will be successful.

Safe use of a beaker in a science lab involves which of the following practices?

Handling the beaker with care and using appropriate safety equipment

Pouring chemicals into a beaker without checking labels

Leaving the beaker unattended while heating

Identify the primary function of the lab equipment seen in the image.

Transfer small amounts of liquid

Transfer large amounts of liquid

What is the main purpose of using a graduated cylinder in an experiment?

To measure liquid volume accurately

Which safety rule should always be followed when working with chemicals in the lab?

Wear goggles to protect your eyes

Eat and drink at your lab station

What is the main purpose of a control group in an experiment?

To provide a standard for comparison

To test multiple variables at once

To change the outcome of the experiment

What should you do if you accidentally spill a chemical during a lab experiment?

Which of the following best describes an independent variable in an experiment?

The variable that is intentionally changed by the experimenter

The variable that is measured as a result

The variable that is not recorded

The variable that stays the same throughout the experiment

Why is it important to only change one independent variable at a time in an experiment?

To ensure that the results are due to the variable being tested

To make the experiment more interesting

To increase the number of variables measured

To save time during the experiment

Which of the following best describes a dependent variable in an experiment?

The variable that is measured or observed as a result of changes

The variable that is not recorded

The variable that remains constant throughout the experiment

The variable that is intentionally changed by the experimenter

Why is it important to identify the dependent variable before starting an experiment?

So you know what to measure or observe for results

So you can change it during the experiment
