Earth/Life Science Unit 1 Review

This is an organized procedure to study something under controlled conditions.

The use of tools, materials, or processes to meet human needs.

Special models built to test a product

Gathering empirical evidence outdoors or where conditions cannot be controlled is known as

Here, scientists have the opportunity to collect data in a controlled environment.

Scientific Knowledge is always changing

These are the best explanations about how things happen.

In science, does repetition mean completing the same experiment?

The systematic study of natural events and conditions.

What is changed in an experiment by the scientist

What remains unchanged by variables in an experiment, what remains the same

A hypothesis is an educated guess

Scientists do most experiments in a laboratory

Scientific Theories are well-supported explanations of nature.

Scientific Laws apply anywhere in the universe

Scientific methods include making observations, planning experiments, collecting data, and drawing conclusions.

Scientific Knowledge is not based on Empirical Evidence

Description of a specific relationship under given conditions in the natural world.

All the measurements and data scientists gather in support of a scientific explanation.

Scientific Ideas must be testable and reproducible

The most reliable scientific information is published in peer-reviewed scientific journals.

Scientific Laws best describe how the world works

This is used to display and compare data in a number of categories.

A scientific model can be a visual or mathematical representation.

Affected by the change in the independent variable, what the scientists measures

The process of obtaining information by using the senses.

The use of scientific and mathematical knowledge to solve practical problems.

The number of times something happens.

In science does, replication mean a different person is completing the experiment?

Information gathered by observation or experimentation that can be used in calculating or reasoning.

Way to display data, where a circle represents all the data collected.

Scientific Theory is supported by a small amount of evidence

Physics is the study of

A testable idea or explanation that leads to scientific investigation

Geology is the study of

Do Scientific Ideas change with new evidence.

Is most often used to show continuous change, and useful for showing changes in variables over time.

Biology is the study of
