Presentation transcript:

Homer notices that his shower is covered in a strange green slime Homer notices that his shower is covered in a strange green slime. His friend Barney tells him that coconut juice will get rid of the green slime. Homer decides to check this out by spraying half of the shower with coconut juice. He sprays the other half of the shower with water. After 3 days of "treatment" there is no change in the appearance of the green slime on either side of the shower. 1. Write a testable question for this experiment. 2. Write a hypothesis for this experiment. 3. Identify the Independent Variable (IV). 4. Identify the Dependent Variable (DV) 5. Name two things that Homer must control in order to make this a fair test. 6. What should Homer’s conclusion be after completing the experiment?
