What is the independent variable

The variable being tested and changed

Which statement DOES NOT apply to homeostasis applies

maintaining external environments

The purpose of a procedure is to....

Provide the steps of the experiment so others can repeat it.

Camouflauge is an example

organisms adapting to their environment

Which scenario would be the most credible and accurate?

Controlling variables and doing 100 trials

Variables that are kept the same between 2 different groups.

What is the difference between the experimental group and the control group?

The experimental group has a manipulated variable

Select the correctly written hypothesis

If you add sugar water to yeast, it will show signs of life.

The dependent variable is the.....

the variable you measure and gives results

Scientific method normally begins with a

Observations, a problem and/or question

refers to all the chemical reactions in the body

A control group helps an experiment because it give the scientist

A group to compare experimental results to

17
Select the correctly written hypothesis
If you add sugar water to yeast, it will show signs of life.
