Essential Question: How do scientists develop explanations?

The Scientific Method

Variables: Independent Variable: Dependent Variable: what you are doing in the experiment. Independent Variable: Dependent Variable: Controlled Variable: what you think will happen in the experiment. What you want to remain constant and unchanging in the experiment.

Variables

Replication vs Repetition Repetition: An experiment is repeated by the same person. Replication: An experiment is repeated by another person.
