Observation Information gathered by using one of the five senses Inference Deriving a conclusion based solely on what one already knows. Control group The group that is not changed (experimentally) and will be used as a comparison Quantitative Describing objects with numbers Qualitative Describing objects with descriptions

Stimulus something external that promotes an activity or response Response is the result of a stimulus. Scientific method is a step by step process for experimental investigations in which a hypothesis is proposed and data is collected Independent variable The variable that is controlled and changed by the person conducting the experiment (x-axis usually) Dependent variable variables that are observed to measure a change as a result of the independent variable (y-axis usually)
