Goggles for eyes. To prevent glass or splashes
Gloves
Lab coat. Not always necessary, protects skin and clothes
Other safety equipment
Be aware of where the eye wash station is and how to use it, first aid kit,
fire extinguisher, disposal area for chemcials and glass
Scientific method
Helps answer questions we see in everyday life
Every scientist may not follow exact
Observe anything you see in the natural world
Observing intentionally, unintentionally, out of curiosity
Question- why does?
Form a question to gain more information on the observation
Hypothesis-specific, testable and objective . structured, logical, explanation
or prediction to answer the question about what you observed
Reasoned-
inductive=specific to general, leave room to falsify
Ex: you have an enzyme that works well at 25 degrees and also at 26
degrees so I think al enzymes will work fine at 27
Deductive- 2 things that have a common
Ex: all cats are animals, all animals have 4 legs, therefore cats have 4 legs
can this be true?
