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