SOL REVIEW SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION
What variable is changed by the experimenter? Hint: remember MIX
Answer= Independent VariableM stands for manipulatedI stands for IndependentX stands for X axis
What variable responds to the changes in the independent variable? Hint: remember DRY
Answer= Dependent VariableD stands for dependentR stands for respondingY stands for Y axis
What do we call variables that we keep the same? We don’t change these variables.
This is the standard of comparison. We compare our results to this group.
A testable idea or explanation that leads to scientific investigation. Also, phrased with an, “If then statement.” If I do this then this will happen.
A system of ideas that explains many related observations and is supported by a large body of evidence acquired through scientific investigation.
A general statement that describes how the natural world behaves under certain conditions and for which no exceptions have been found.
Process of using the senses of sight, touch, taste, hearing, and smell to gather information about the world.

A block of aluminum has a volume of 17.0 ml and a mass of 45.9 g. What is its density? Answer= D= M/V D= 45.9 g/ 17.0 ml D= 2.7 g / ml
Using the graph above, describe how temperature changes as the altitude in the atmosphere increases.
Using the graph above, describe how temperature changes as the altitude in the atmosphere increases. Atmospheric temperature changes from layer to layer. Gases expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled. Hot air is less dense than cool air. Increasing air temperature decreases atmospheric pressure. Decreasing air temperature increases atmospheric pressure.
