Day 2 Scientific Thinking Review

Which of the following is an example of a system?

Does the height of the ramp impact the speed the ball will travel? What is the dependent variable?

The independent variable is also known as the:

All of the following are scientific models except for:

An experiment to look at the impact of different genres of music on student math assessment performance. What is the DV?

All of the following are scientific theories except for:

The group that is not part of the experiment and is actually used as a comparison for the experiment is called the:

Does the height of the ramp impact the speed the ball will travel? All of the following are controlled variables except?

The method used by scientists to answer a testable question.

The variable that is manipulated or changed by the scientist during an experiment is called the:

Does the height of the ramp impact the speed the ball will travel? What is the independent variable?

The independent variable is generally found on the Y axis.

Does the height of the ramp impact the speed the ball will travel? What is a proper hypothesis for this question?

Experiment to determine if different tire treads affect the braking distance of a car. What is the manipulated variable?

This is the final step that compares the results to your hypothesis and includes data for support.

Data can be organized in all of the following except for:

The conclusion should include all of the following except for:

The type of graph that should be used for seperate but related categories is a:

An experiment to look at the impact of different genres of music on student math assessment performance. What is the IV?

The variables that remain constant throughout at experiment are called the:

A model could be

The experiment step of the scientific method should include all of the following except for:

Which of the following is not a good scientific question?

Experiment to determine if different tire treads affect the braking distance of a car. What is the responding variable?

Which is a pseudo science?

The procedure should include both the numerical steps taken during an experiment and the data to be collected.

The step that uses an if...then...statement and is considered an educated guess
