Steps of the Scientific Method

The Scientific Method involves a series of steps that are used to investigate a natural occurrence.

(revisit hypothesis if necessary) Communicate the Results! Scientific Method Leave space in between to write information Observation Problem/Question Hypothesis Experiment Conclusions (revisit hypothesis if necessary) Communicate the Results!

Observations Qualitative or Quantitative. Fish and lizards have similar gill structures as embryos. The homologous structures of a human and cat have similar bone structures. There are 17 differences between human and shark hemoglobin protein. The animals are cold because they are shivering. People reported feeling sleeping after taking a drug. Individual’s cholesterol dropped 10 points after taking a drug.

Hypothesis a TESTABLE educated guess.

Designed to test a hypothesis! Experiment Designed to test a hypothesis! Control Group vs. Experimental Group Variables: Independent vs. Dependent

Communicate the Results! All Science is built on other science. Hierarchy of Proof: Hypothesis, Theory, Law
