Some believe that controlled burning isn’t necessary and that the chance for the fire to go out of control is too

For this initial discussion I would like to contrast controlled laboratory experiments and naturalistic observations research methods. In controlled laboratory experiments‚ the researchers conduct their studies in a controlled setting. Conversely‚ studies involving naturalistic observation‚ examine participants in their natural environment. Below I present a contrast of the most essential features of each of these methods of research. Controlled laboratory experiments: • Objective: Seek to compare

theories as to how the pyramids were built. In the current century‚ many opinions have surfaced that have changed the questioning of how these magnificent creations were built.
