Match the following terms with their definitions: 1. NOT an educated guess, rather a possible explanation to observations. These should be written as an If/ Then statement. 2. Using one or more of the senses to gather information. 3. A. observation B. inference C. controlled The variables that stay the same in the control group and the experimental group. 4. variables A logical interpretation of the data based on prior knowledge and D. experimental experience 5. The manipulated variable. This is what I (the scientist) change in an experiment. 6. group E. control group F. theory G. law The responding variable. This is what is measured in an experiment. 7. A way of doing science. There are steps that include observation, H. scientific question, hypothesis, experiment, analysis, conclusion. These steps are not always completed in the same order. 8. It describes the process of HOW something happens 9. method I. independent variable J. dependent A well tested explanation that unifies a broad range of observations. G Describes what happens under certain conditions. This is revealing the pattern of WHAT happens. 10. variable In an experiment, this group that is used for comparison. It does not receive the experimental variable. 11. K. hypothesis In an experiment, this group that has the manipulated variable in it.
