100% Correct (Verified
Solutions)
Observation, Problems and Questions, Hypothesis, Observations and
Experimentation, Data collection and analysis, Conclusions, Theories -
✅✅parts of the scientific method
Observation - ✅✅"My Roommate said Biology 200 students smile
during lab"
Problems and Questions - ✅✅"What is the most exciting class at
Minnesota State Mankato?"
Hypothesis - ✅✅"Bio 100 is the most exciting class at Minnesota
State Mankato"
Observations and Experiments - ✅✅"All exiting Minnesota State
Mankato seniors were given a survey asking them what class at
Mankato the most exciting"
,Data Collection and Analysis - ✅✅"For the last 20 years surveys were
collected from exiting seniors and it was found that 99.9% of the
seniors that that BIO was the most exciting class taken at Mankato"
Conclusions - ✅✅"You will also find BIO very exciting"
Theories - ✅✅an explanation for a natural phenomenon; it is as
close to the truth as scientists can get and is accepted by a majority of
scientists.
Questioning - ✅✅Occurs when you identify and state a problem or
ask a question. Needs to be understandable, doable, and testable,
falisifiable.
Good Characteristics of Hypotheses - ✅✅An educated guess or a
possible explanation for an observed set of facts that lends itself to
being tested. Must be testable through experiments, must be very
specific, and can be written in several formats.
Scientific Theory - ✅✅A well-substantiated explanation of some
aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been
repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment.
Observation - ✅✅The process of gathering information throughout
the senses.
, Subject Expectation - ✅✅Form of reactivity that occurs in scientific
experiments when a research subject expects a given result and
therefore unconsciously affects the outcome
Observer Bias - ✅✅Occurs when the observers know the goals of the
study or the hypotheses and allow this knowledge to influence their
observations during the study.
Double Blind Experiment - ✅✅Neither the participants nor the
researchers know which participants belong to the control group, nor
the test group.
Random Assignment - ✅✅Placement is an experimental technique
for assigning subjects to different treatments
Controlled Variable - ✅✅The quantities that a scientist wants to
remain constant.
Independent Variables - ✅✅The values you are manipulating and
have control over
Dependent Variable - ✅✅What you measure in the experiment and
what is affected during the experiment.
