Matching Pairs Steps of the Sci Method-MatchOnline version Match the first few steps of the scientific method by Benjamin D Morgan 1 Hypothesis definition 2 Step 1 of the Scientific Method 3 Controlled Variable 4 Independent (Manipulated) Variable 5 Question: How does the age of a person effect how fast they can run? The dependent variable is: 6 Steps in an Experiment includes: 7 Hypothesis needs what items 8 Question: How does the age of a person effect how fast they can run? The controlled variable is: 9 Step 4 of the Scientific Method 10 Dependent (Responding) Variable 11 Step 2 of the Scientific Method 12 Procedure includes what items 13 Question: How does the age of a person effect how fast they can run? The independent variable is: 14 Scientific Method 15 Step 3 of the Scientific Method What we make different in an experiment (the cause) 1. What materials to use & how to use them 2. What is being recorded and how we are recording it An explanation done before an experiment that is testable through an experiment. Ask a question AND research information surrounding that question Write a hypothesis (1st claim) The distance that is ran Make observations about the natural world What we measure in an experiment (the effect) 1. Materials needed during an experiment 2. variables 3. steps/directions Written in cause/effect (If...then...) A series of steps used by scientists to solve a problem through experimentation How fast they can run Age of the person What we keep the same in an experiment Come up with a procedure (experiment) to test your hypothesis
