Dianna Baldwin SCI 230 The Scientific Method The first step in the scientific method is to observe. When you are observing you are discovering what is going on around you. The second step in the scientific method is question. To question one must make an attempt to explain the observation that was made. The next step in the scientific method is making a hypothesis. A hypothesis is made to predict a solution and an outcome. The fourth step in the scientific method is making a prediction.

SCI 230 Week 1 Checkpoint Theories of Biology.doc The Major Theories of Biology Evolution by natural selection: This theory came about as a result of Charles Darwin trying to find an explanation for “why there are so many different living beings on earth?” (Pruitt‚ N. L.‚ & Underwood‚ L. S. (2006). His theory contains two parts‚ the first part states that species change over generations. The second part states that what causes this change is natural

Material Cell Energy Worksheet Answer the following questions: Cellular respiration: What is cellular respiration and what are its three stages? Cellular respiration is a metabolic process that all living organisms use to harvest from foods in the form of adenosine triphosphate. There are three stages of cellular respiration-glycolysis‚ citric acid cycle‚ and electron transport chain. What is the role of glycolysis? Include the reactants and the products. Where does it occur? The

Cell Energy Worksheet Answer the following questions: Cellular respiration: What is cellular respiration and what are its three stages? Cellular respiration is the metabolic process that releases stored energy from the bonds of organic molecules‚ mainly glucose. There are three stages: 1) Glycolysis 2) Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle) 3) Electron Transport Chain What is the role of glycolysis? Include the reactants and the products. Where does it occur? Glycolysis splits the glucose

again (see Fig. 14.3). In brief‚ we can say that many interlocking food chains make it possible for the living beings to survive minor or major ’setbacks and changes in their surroundings. Thus‚ inteiloctiig food chains provide st;bility td the ecosystem. Fig’ 14’3: A food web showing the main food links. Note that the starting point for each chain is a plant‚ and several food chains are interconnected to form a food web. 14.3.4 Energy Flow in the Ecosystem The principal source ofenergy

Number of cells – prokaryotic cells is single celled while eukaryotic cells can be single or multi celled. 2. The size of the cells – prokaryotic cells are really extremely tiny while eukaryotic cells are just extremely tiny. 3. The DNA structure – prokaryotic cells are a single circular chromosome attached to the

Include the following: Describe how you applied the steps of the scientific method in the activity. Describe a real-life problem where you have or could have used the scientific method. Include the steps involved in solving the problem. I completed both the tomato growing and the car starting exercises. I first identified the problem. The tomato plants were not producing
Free Scientific method Hypothesis Theory
In completing the Tomato Plant experiment I had to apply the scientific method. I observed that my tomato plants were producing less fruit each year. I then questioned some of the elements that may have affected the tomato plants and caused them to bear fewer tomatoes being a deficiency in warmth‚ water‚ or nutrients. I then selected my hypotheses that the plants were in need of more nutrients. Following my hypothesis I developed my prediction which was that my plants would bear more tomatoes if
