What is Science? Science is in the business of observations, qualitative & quantitative. Observations create curiosity, spawning questions and inferences. Questions & inferences lead scientists for formulate hypotheses. Science is in the business of generating hypotheses and testing them. Science deals only with measurable and testable natural phenomena. Science is in the business of objectively collecting and analyzing data. Scientific hypotheses must be measurable, testable, & verifiable

StatementObservation Inference Object A is round and orange. Object A is a basketball. Object C is round and black and white. Object C is larger than Object B. Object B is smooth. Object B is a table-tennis ball. Each object is used in a different sport. X X X X X X X X Object A is a basketball. Object B is a table-tennis ball. Object C is a soccer ball.

Mystery Worms Section 1-2 Interest Grabber Go to Section: A teacher collected some beetles from a rotting log and placed them in a container of dry oatmeal in her classroom. She kept the box covered with a light cloth so that the beetles could not escape. She also asked one of her students to add potato and apple pieces once a week to provide food and moisture for the beetles. After several weeks, the student reported that there were some strange-looking, wormlike organisms in the container.

1. Formulate a hypothesis that might explain the presence of the “worms” in the container. 2. How could you test your hypothesis? 3. Identify the variables in your proposed experiment. Identify the control in your proposed experiment. Section 1-2 Interest Grabber continued Go to Section:

OBSERVATIONS: Flies land on meat that is left uncovered. Later, maggots appear on the meat. HYPOTHESIS: Flies produce maggots. PROCEDURE Controlled Variables: jars, type of meat, location, temperature, time Manipulated Variables: gauze covering that keeps flies away from meat Uncovered jarsCovered jars Several days pass Maggots appearNo maggots appear Responding Variable: whether maggots appear CONCLUSION: Maggots form only when flies come in contact with meat. Spontaneous generation of maggots did not occur. Section 1-2 Figure 1-8 Redi’s Experiment on Spontaneous Generation Go to Section:

Shells and Snowflakes How can we distinguish between living and nonliving things, such as a radiolarian (left) and a snowflake (right)? A radiolarian is a tiny living thing that is covered with a glasslike shell and lives in the ocean. A snowflake is a crystal made of frozen water. Section 1-3 Interest Grabber Go to Section:

Work with a partner to answer the following questions. 1. What are some similarities between the snowflake and the glass shell of the radiolarian? 2. What are some differences between the snowflake and the glass shell? 3. Would you classify the shell as a living thing or a nonliving thing? Explain your answer.

CharacteristicExamples Living things are made up of units called cells. Living things reproduce. Living things are based on a universal genetic code. Living things grow and develop. Living things obtain and use materials and energy. Living things respond to their environment. Living things maintain a stable internal environment. Taken as a group, living things change over time. Many microorganisms consist of only a single cell. Animals and trees are multicellular. Maple trees reproduce sexually. A hydra can reproduce asexually by budding. Flies produce flies. Dogs produce dogs. Seeds from maple trees produce maple trees. Flies begin life as eggs, then become maggots, and then become adult flies. Plants obtain their energy from sunlight. Animals obtain their energy from the food they eat. Leaves and stems of plants grow toward light. Despite changes in the temperature of the environment, a robin maintains a constant body temperature. Plants that live in the desert survive because they have become adapted to the conditions of the desert. Section 1-3 Characteristics of Living Things Go to Section:

Putting Size in Perspective Here are some measurements: A young child is just over 1 m in height. The marble in the child’s hand has a diameter of about 0.01 m. A cell in the palm of the child’s hand has a diameter of about m. How can you put these numbers in perspective? You can use a ratio of the larger object to the smaller one. This requires dividing the larger number by the smaller number. Another way to compare these numbers is to look at the place value of the number 1. Each time the number shifts one place value to the right, it decreases by a factor of 10. Thus, 1 is ten times greater than 0.10, and 10 is one hundred times greater than Section 1-4 Interest Grabber Go to Section:

1. How does the height of the child compare to the diameter of the marble? 2. How does the marble diameter compare to the diameter of the cell? 3. How does the height of the child compare to the diameter of the cell? Section 1-4 Interest Grabber continued Go to Section:
