Nicole Whaley BIO-220 May 7‚ 2012 Chris Traasdahl Scientific Method Matching Exercise Resource 1. Observe. A scientist observes that a pond adjacent to an industrial plant has heavier algae growth than ponds farther away (G). I chose this as an example of observation because the sentence explains in detail how the scientist first gathered the idea to for conducting the experiment. 2. Ask a question. A scientist wonders if the waste water emitted from an industrial plant is accelerating

1.03 Scientific Method Kaylee Mellott August 23‚ 2013 Scenario 2: 1. The dependent variable is the rate of the growth of the plant and then the independent variable would be the time of day that she waters the plant. 2. Five variables that should be controlled during the experiment is the amount of sunlight‚ room temperature‚ amount of water‚ the time of day the plant is watered and the certain type of plant. To make sure the plants get the same amount of sunlight‚ make sure to put them both

Utopia or Dystopia DNA PROFILING What is this? DNA profiling (also called DNA testing‚ DNA typing‚ or genetic fingerprinting) is a technique that is used to assist in the identification of individuals by their respective DNA profiles. DNA profiles are encrypted sets of letters that reflect a person ’s DNA makeup‚ which can also be used as the person ’s identifier. DNA profiling should not be confused with full genome sequencing. DNA profiling is used in‚ for example‚ parental testing and criminal

| Scientific Method and the Problem-Solving Approach | Writing Assignment 2 | 3/25/2012 | Scientific Method and the Problem-Solving Approach My hypothesis for the small amount of information would be the reason for the fewer fish and higher amount of algae may be due to algae blooms. Algae blooms are due to a rapid increase of algae and too much nitrogen in the water. From this information‚ I can deduce that there is a runoff problem from one or more of the farms where fertilizer

that unknowns #1‚ #2 and #3 are identified correctly. I am certain due to the qualitative data I collected during my observations. Sight‚ smell and texture were the determining factors. C. One of the most important and unique steps in the scientific method is the ability to create a new hypothesis if your results do not support your original ideas. What areas in your life‚ other than in science class‚ do you think this type of step would be helpful? Explain your answer. I believe that life in

James Nguyen Professor Tarango English 100 30 June 2014 The Past is the Present In August 1955‚ Emmett Till‚ a fourteen-year-old African-American boy left Chicago to visit his relatives in Mississippi. A couple days after he arrived‚ he and his cousin Curtis Jones went to the Bryant ’s grocery store to buy some candy. A white man named Roy Bryant who was out of town owned the store and his wife‚ Carolyn‚ was managing the shop in his absence. The exact details of the incident have long been disputed

Introduction When extracting lipids or fats from foods‚ both the method as well as the solvents chosen to perform a complete‚ or close to complete extraction are important. If these two elements are not taken into consideration‚ the extraction may not be complete‚ or the extract may contain a large quantity of undesired impurities. The natural fats and oil are mixtures of glycerides of fatty acids. Fats and oils are naturally occurring organic compounds which belong to a large group of water insoluble

Chapter 1 Scientific Method: (4 & 5 are combined) 1. Observe Closely observe the physical world around you. 2. Question Recognize a question or a problem. 3. Hypothesize Make an educated guess—a hypothesis—to answer the question. Must be able to be proven rright or wrong(false or true). 4. Predict Predict consequences that can be observed if the hypothesis is correct. The consequences should be absent if the hypothesis is not correct. 5. Test predictions Do experiments to see if the consequences
