Solving Problems and Experimental Design Unit 1: Introduction to Biology and Chemistry Basics within Biology
Do Now . . . . In Your Notes . . . • Identify (create a list of) ALL of the variables relating to the design and execution of the How Strong is a Bess Bug lab. • COMPARE your list with your neighbor. • IDENTIFY the variables that both of you had on your list. WRITE each one on an index card on the lined . • IDENTIFY variables that were UNIQUE on your list. WRITE each one on an index card.
HOW did you design a controlled experiment? • How did you eliminate each variable? • Which variables could NOT be eliminated? WHY
Did YOU design a CONTROLLED EXPERIMENT? • YES or NO! • Take a Stand!
