TOPIC 3 –
CAUSE AND EFFECT
The Plan: Discuss a cause
and effect relationship
Through experimentation we gain new ​evidence to help explain a given
effect. This evidence may be based on observations or inferences.
- give direct evidence of a given situation or effect.
i.e. - the time it takes an object to move from ​one point to another, the
colour of light emitted by a ​given material, the change in temperature
during a ​chemical reaction
- are indirect evidence supported by previous
experience, logical assumptions, and ​scientific reasoning.
Observations
Inferences
LETS MAKE SOME INFERENCES
Experiments often give us new ​observations/evidence or allow
inferences that ​help us to explain what we have observed.
We call this a cause and effect relationship!
Cause and effect relationship – is a relationship in which one event (the
cause) makes another event happen (the effect). One cause can have
several effects. We use inferences based on our observations.
A cause and effect relationship should:
1. Should be written in full sentences and in a ​paragraph format.
2. Should have a logical order or sequence
3. Be detailed enough so that the audience doesn't ​need to guess.
