Check to see how much you remember… • .The first step in the scientific process is to make an -------------. • A hypothesis MUST be a -------------one. • Scientist usually perform controlled experiments which means the experiment has a Control group and an Experimental group: • `The ------------- group is the one that stays the same AND is used for COMPARISONS! • The ------------------- group is the one you are making CHANGES to; the one you are experimenting with. • The ------------------------- variable is the thing you’re testing – the CAUSE of the change • The ------------------------------ variable is the result/outcome – the EFFECT of the change. observation testable control experimental Independent/Test Dependent/Outcome
