Chapter Content: The Scientific Study of Life
OV
Complete the following questions as you read the first chapter content—The Scientific Study of Life:
1. Biology is the scientific study of life.
2. Dr. Jane Goodall is famous for her research on chimpanzees. She observed the chimpanzees for
ED
long periods of time and made numerous observations of them that she recorded very carefully.
Which stage of scientific inquiry is this considered?
A) Exploration _S
B) Testing
C) Making a hypothesis
D) Drawing a conclusion TU
3. Use the following figure to answer this question. Assume your results reject your initial
hypothesis as indicated. Briefly explain why you would not return to the exploration portion of
the process to change the question instead of revising the hypothesis.

?
Your initial observations are likely accurate and you would still have the same question even if
your initial hypothesis did not pan out. In the event that your results reject your hypothesis, you
would make another hypothesis.

4. Match the following terms with the best definition: data, science, hypothesis, experiments, and
peer review
Scientific tests where conditions can be controlled: Experiments
PR
A tentative explanation for a set of observations: Hypothesis
A thorough review of scientific results prior to publication: Peer review
Inquiry into how the natural world functions: Science
Recorded observations: Data
OV
5. The following figure indicates that the testing and communication components of science
connect to each other. Briefly explain how these two components interact to strengthen each
other. Hint—think back to peer review

VI
A?
You submit your paper to a journal for publication during which time it is peer reviewed. The
?
feedback received will allow you to strengthen certain aspects of the work and make it even
better.
6. An often misunderstood concept is the difference between a scientific theory and a hypothesis.
Briefly explain what you would tell a student who believes a scientific theory and a hypothesis
are the same.
A hypothesis has very little validity behind it even if it has been supported by a few experiments.
In general, not much strength is given to a hypothesis. A theory is a hypothesis that has been
supported by numerous experiments by numerous scientists. It is generally widely accepted
within the scientific community.
