natural sciences, especially biology and physiology, to clinical medicine.
Control Group - CORRECT ANSWER - The group in an experiment where the
independent variable being tested is not applied so that it may serve as a standard for the
comparison against the experimental group where the independent variable is applied.
Experiment - CORRECT ANSWER - A research study conducted to determine the effect
that one variable has upon another variable.
Forensic Science - CORRECT ANSWER - The application of scientific knowledge to
questions of civil and criminal law.
Hypothesis - CORRECT ANSWER - Clear prediction of the anticipated results of an
experiment.
