Presentation transcript:

Use the pictures below to answer the following questions. List two qualitative observations. List one quantitative observation. List two inferences. Answers: The cookies are not circles. The girl has blonde hair. (2) There are 22 cookies in the pictures. (1) She took bites out of all of the cookies. The cookies are red velvet. (2)

What is the independent variable in an experiment? What is the dependent variable in an experiment? What would be the purpose of a control group in an experiment? Make a qualitative observation about this classroom. Make a quantitative observation about this classroom. Answers: (1 pt each) What is being tested What is being measured To have a normal to use for comparison Answers will vary

What is the independent variable in this experiment? Your teacher wants to design an experiment to see if feeding my dog raw eggs makes her coat shiny. What is the independent variable in this experiment? What is the dependent variable in this experiment? What would be the control group in this experiment? 4. What would be the experimental group in this experiment? 5. List a necessary constant. Answers: (1 pt each) Amount of raw eggs Shininess of coat No eggs Eggs Answers may vary. Same breed of dog

What is the independent variable in this experiment? Your science class wants to see if changing the color of light flowers get affects the height of the flowers. What is the independent variable in this experiment? What is the dependent variable in this experiment? What would be the control group in this experiment? 4. What would be the experimental group in this experiment? 5. List a necessary constant. Answers: (1 pt each) Color of light Height White light Other colors of light Answers may vary. Same brand of flower, same amount of water, etc.
