2. Analyze is:
To examine carefully and in detail so as to identify causes, key factors, and possible results

3. Analyze is:

4. Analyze is not:
Just digging up an idea!

5. Inference is:
Conclusion drawn from an observation.

6. Inference is:

7. Inference is not:

8. Reliability is:
The ability to be depended on , as for accuracy, honesty or achievement

9. Reliability is:
Rain, Snow, Sleet or Hail – the mail must be delivered.

10. Reliability is not:

11. Factor that stays the same through all phases of an experiment.
Control is:
Factor that stays the same through all phases of an experiment.

12. Control is:

13. Control is not:

14. Standard used for comparison in an experiment
Constant is:
Standard used for comparison in an experiment

15. Constant is:

16. Quantitative is:
Data that is usually numbers, usually measurements with units

17. Quantitative is:

18. Quantitative is not:

19. Qualitative is:
Data recorded as descriptors - descriptions

20. Qualitative is:

21. Qualitative is not:

22. Variable is:
A condition that is changed in order to find out the effect of that change

23. Variable is:

24. Single factor in an experiment that the experimenter changes.
Independent
Variable is:
Single factor in an experiment that the experimenter changes.

25. Manipulated - Independent Variable – X-axis
Variable is:
To insure a fair test, a good experiment has only one independent variable
MIX
Manipulated - Independent Variable – X-axis

26. Independent Variable is not:
Kept the same!

27. Factor that will be measured in an experiment
Dependent
Variable is:
Factor that will be measured in an experiment

28. Dependent Variable – Responds – Y-axis
Variable is:
The scientist focuses his or her observations on the dependent variable to see how it responds to the change made to the independent variable.
DRY
Dependent Variable – Responds – Y-axis

29. Variable that is changed!!
Dependent
Variable is not:
Variable that is changed!!
