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 Steps in an Experiment includes: 3 Hypothesis definition 4 Question: How does the age of a person effect how fast they can run? The controlled variable is: 5 Step 4 of the Scientific Method 6 Question: How does the age of a person effect how fast they can run? The dependent variable is: 7 Step 1 of the Scientific Method 8 Controlled Variable 9 Step 2 of the Scientific Method 10 Procedure includes what items 11 Independent (Manipulated) Variable 12 Scientific Method 13 Dependent (Responding) Variable 14 Question: How does the age of a person effect how fast they can run? The independent variable is: 15 Hypothesis needs what items The distance that is ran Ask a question AND research information surrounding that question What we keep the same in an experiment 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 measure in an experiment (the effect) How fast they can run Written in cause/effect (If...then...) What we make different in an experiment (the cause) Write a hypothesis (1st claim) Make observations about the natural world Come up with a procedure (experiment) to test your hypothesis 1. Materials needed during an experiment 2. variables 3. steps/directions Age of the person An explanation done before an experiment that is testable through an experiment.
