Question

what do you want to know or explain? use observations you have made to
step 2: form a hypothesis what do you think will happen? a hypothesis is
it is based on your
and should be
step 3: conduct an experiment to test your hypothesis design a procedure that tests your hypothesis to see if your prediction is correct. this procedure must be
by any other individual. record all of your
and put them into a
that is neat and organized.
every procedure should include the following variables:
independent variable: the variable
dependent variable: the variable
the
variable causes an observable change in the
variable.
controlled variables: the variables
ensures that there is only one
variable.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is an educated - guess based on prior knowledge or observations and should be testable. An experiment procedure must be repeatable. Data and observations are recorded and organized. The independent variable is the one that is manipulated, the dependent variable is the one that is measured and changes due to the independent variable, and controlled variables are kept constant to ensure only one independent variable affects the outcome.

Answer:

Step 1: Use observations you have made to ask a question.
Step 2: A hypothesis is an educated - guess. It is based on your prior knowledge or observations and should be testable.
Step 3: This procedure must be repeatable by any other individual. Record all of your data and observations and put them into a table that is neat and organized.
Independent Variable: The variable that is manipulated.
Dependent Variable: The variable that is measured. The independent variable causes an observable change in the dependent variable.
Controlled Variables: The variables that are kept constant. Ensures that there is only one independent variable.
