Describe how mass differs from weight?

Mass is amount of matter, where weight is measure of gravity effect

Describe the difference between a scientific hypothesis, theory and law?

hypothesis is limited explanation and theory is an in-depth explanation

What is the function of the control in an experiment?

Observation designed to minimize the effects of variables

Answers

1
Describe how mass differs from weight?
bc mass is cooler
Mass is amount of matter, where weight is measure of gravity effect
Mass is bigger than weight
mass is measured in newtons and weight is measured in kilograms
2
Describe the difference between a scientific hypothesis, theory and law?
theory is a guess, hypothsis is a fact
all are correct
scientific hypothesis is a proven fact, where as a theory and law isnt
hypothesis is limited explanation and theory is an in-depth explanation
3
How many centimeters are in 55 milliliters?
55
35
29
12
4
What is the function of the control in an experiment?
Observation designed to minimize the effects of variables
observation designed to maximize the effects of variables
observation designed to control variables
none of the above
5
Describe the two basic types of observation made during an experiment?
all of the above
true and false
guess and check
Quantitative and qualitative
6
Explain why food science is an applied science
because food is science
because it can
because food scientist apply basic laws of chemistry, physics,and biology,
because if it weren't for science food wouldn't be here
7
Why is it best not to measure the length of an object from the end of a ruler?
its not where it starts
The end is often imperfect
be smarter than the ruler
Because it could be off
8
List the steps of the scientific method?
make observation, ask ?, form hypothsis, make prediction, test predication
make observation, ask a question, for hypothisis, make prediction
make observation, ask a question, make prediction, form hypothisis
test prediction, form hypothsis, make prediction
9
what are the metric base units for mass, length, volume, time and temperature?
gram, meter, liters, second, kelvin
kelvin, gram,seceond, meter,liter
gram,second,meter, liters,kelvin
gram, meter, liters, kelvin, second
10
On what is the Celsius temperature scale based?
32 degree for freezing point and 120 degree for boiling point
7 for freezing point and 20 for boiling point
0 degree for freezing point and 100 degree boiling point
-100 degree for freezing point and 0 for boiling point
