Hypothesis

This text provides an overview of crucial concepts in scientific research, specifically focusing on hypotheses and controlled experiments. A hypothesis is defined as a statement that can be proven or disproven through experimentation. It also discusses the significance of controlling variables to ensure reliable results and define the standard parameters for experiments, such as the volume of a lifeboat and its capacity in relation to passengers. Knowledge of these principles is essential for conducting valid scientific studies and achieving accurate outcomes.

  1. Hypothesis A statement that can be proven or disproved through a controlled experiment.

  2. Life Boat Volume 3 cm High Group # Capacity in mL Passengers 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 A standard life boat has a volume of ___________ A standard life boat will carry ____________ passengers

  3. Standard LifeBoat Volume of _________mL. Carries ______ Passengers Why……

  4. Standard The accepted way something is done, made, or measured.

  5. Examples

  6. Controlled Experiment An experiment in which you try to have as few variables as possible. By limiting variables, you can test for the variables affect in your experiment.

  7. Examples

  8. The perfect controlled experiment would have only one variable. Scientists try to have as few variables as possible.

  9. Controls Procedures that are kept the same between experiments.

  10. Examples

  11. Variable Anything that you change in an experiment that might affect the results. The variable becomes what you are testing for.

  12. Examples

  13. The better you limit the variables in an experiment, the more reliable your results .

  14. Examples
