1. Good Morning! Shoot-Around
Identify the Dependent and Independent Variables.
If skin cancer is related to ultraviolet light, then people with a high exposure to UV light will have a higher frequency of skin cancer.
If leaf color change is related to temperature, then exposing plants to low temperatures will result in changes in leaf color.
If the thickness of annual growth rings in trees is related to annual rainfall, then examining wood samples will reveal correlations in the growth rings to the historical records for rainfall in its environment.
