17. materials What is needed to conduct the experiment.

18. conclusion The final step in the scientific method and is a final statement.

19. infer To make a quick decision based what your senses are telling you.

20. Independent variable s that variable presumed to affect or determine a dependent variable. It can be changed as required, and its values do not represent a problem requiring explanation in an analysis, but are taken simply as given.variabledependent variable

21. Dependent variable In any true experiment, a researcher manipulates an independent variable, to influence a dependent variable, or variables.

22. Theory A statement that has some data to support it but there is still reason not accept it as fact. Big Bang Theory Darwin’s Theory Plate Tectonic Theory Natural Selection Theory Einstein's Theory of Relativity

23. law It can not be disproved and has stood the test of time. It is a fact.

24. Control variable All the things in an experiment that is kept the same throughout.
