Ask a Question or I.D a Problem Example: Energy Drinks and sleep deprivation have a direct correlation with each other
4
Research/Observe Research/Observe: Research the topic at hand and take notes. Example: We fine that certain energy drinks contain caffeine, vitamins, and stimulants that prevent sleeping hormones in the brain to take effect
5
Form Hypothesis Hypothesis: A proposed explanation to the question. Example: Students who consume a larger quantity of energy drinks will sleep less during the night.

7
Analyze results Go over results of experiment Example: Energy drinks have a direct relationship with hrs slept per night
8
Conclusion Report on what the experiment told us. Example: Those who receive more energy drink supplements will sleep less per night
9
Variables All experiments within the scientific method have variables. Independent variable: Manipulated or changed by the experimenter. Ex. Energy drink amount Dependent Variable: The outcome from the experiment that is measured. Ex. Hours of sleep
