CLMS Semester 1 Final Exam Review
Manipulated Variable - Answer-the variable that stands alone, "I" change, "we" change
Responding Variable - Answer-the variable that can be measured or observed. the results
Quantitative - Answer-observations that can me measured ( uses numbers)
Qualitative - Answer-observations that are based on qualities (no numbers)
Metric System - Answer-measurement system we use in science
Graduated Cylinder - Answer-Instrument used for finding liquid volume
Triple beam balance - Answer-Instrument used for finding mass
grams (g) - Answer-unit for measuring mass
, cubic centimeters (cm3) - Answer-unit for measuring volume of a solid
milliliters (mL) - Answer-unit for measuring volume of a liquid
centimeters (cm) - Answer-unit for measuring length (1/100th of a meter)
L x W x H - Answer-Formula for finding volume of regular shape
Liquid Displacement - Answer-Process for finding the volume of an irregular solid
Triple Beam Balance - Answer-What scientific tool is used to measure the mass of an object?
4 mL - Answer-Identify the volume of the ring pictured
10 mL - Answer-Identify the volume of the cylinder pictured
Force - Answer-Push or Pull
Independent variable - Answer-The variable being tested; the variable that "I" am changing in the
experiment
Dependent variable - Answer-The responding variable; in an experiment, it is usually what you are
measuring.
Controlled variable - Answer-The sample where everything is kept the exact same throughout the
experiment; used to compare the experimental data to to determine the change or effect the tested
variable had.
