INTRODUCTION TO THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD
1. WHY IS THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD USED?
A) TO TEST IDEAS ABOUT HOW THE NATURAL WORLD WORKS
B) TO MEMORIZE SCIENTIFIC FACTS ABOUT EXPERIMENTS
C) TO DETERMINE LEGAL RESPONSIBILITIES FOR SCIENTISTS
D) TO ESTABLISH ECONOMIC POLICIES FOR THE WORLD
CORRECT ANS>>A
THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD IS A STRUCTURED PROCESS USED BY SCIENTISTS
TO INVESTIGATE OBSERVATIONS, ANSWER QUESTIONS, AND TEST
HYPOTHESES. ITS MAIN GOAL IS TO GAIN A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF
HOW THE NATURAL WORLD FUNCTIONS THROUGH OBSERVATION,
EXPERIMENTATION, AND ANALYSIS.
SECTION: 1.1
SKILL: REMEMBERING/UNDERSTANDING
LEARNING OUTCOME: 1.1
2. WHICH FEATURE IS NECESSARY FOR A SCIENTIFIC HYPOTHESIS?
A) IT CAN BE PROVEN TRUE
B) IT IS FALSIFIABLE.
C) IT IS A THEORY ABOUT SUPERNATURAL EVENTS.
D) IT IS NOT BASED ON OBSERVATIONS.
CORRECT ANS >>B
A SCIENTIFIC HYPOTHESIS MUST BE FALSIFIABLE, MEANING IT CAN BE
TESTED AND POTENTIALLY PROVEN WRONG. THIS CRITERION IS
