The document discusses the key components of designing scientific investigations, including identifying the three main types of variables: independent, dependent, and controlled variables. It provides examples of experiments and identifies the variables in each. The independent variable is the one that is manipulated by the researcher. The dependent variable is the one that is measured and could be affected by changes to the independent variable. Controlled variables are kept the same. A proper scientific investigation should clearly identify these variables, outline the specific procedures, and explain how data will be collected and analyzed.

Scientific Method Variables (Teach)
The scientific method involves designing experiments to test hypotheses. It requires identifying:
1) A change variable that is intentionally altered between trials.
2) A responding variable that is measured to see the effects of the change variable.
3) Control variables that could also influence the responding variable and must be kept constant. Proper experiments only vary one factor at a time to determine causation.
Scientific Method
The document outlines the 7-step scientific method process used in class to conduct scientific investigations:
1. Formulate a question based on observations.
2. Research the question to see if it has been studied before and understand relevant scientific concepts.
3. Form a testable hypothesis predicting the outcome.
4. Conduct an experiment to test the hypothesis, carefully recording all data and observations.
5. Analyze the data for trends that either support or refute the hypothesis.
6. Draw conclusions about whether the data supports the hypothesis.
7. Communicate the results so others can analyze and build upon the findings.
Scientific method powerpoint
The scientific method involves 5 key steps to test hypotheses and theories: 1) observing something and asking a question, 2) predicting an answer through a hypothesis, 3) designing an experiment to test the hypothesis, 4) recording and analyzing the results of the experiment, and 5) stating whether the hypothesis was confirmed based on the results and conclusions. The scientific method is the standard process used by researchers to systematically support or disprove theories through repeated experimentation.
Scientific method power point
The document discusses the scientific method and how science is done. It explains that the goal of science is to investigate the natural world through careful observation and experimentation. The scientific method involves forming a hypothesis, designing a controlled experiment to test the hypothesis, recording and analyzing results, and drawing conclusions. A theory may eventually be formed if a hypothesis is supported through repeated experimentation and evidence. The document provides examples of applying the scientific method to test variables and their effects.
Animal Adaptations
The document discusses animal adaptations and provides examples. It explains that adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that help animals survive in their habitat, such as a bird's beak shape or an animal's fur color. Physical adaptations develop over generations, not in a single lifetime. Examples of animal adaptations include teeth shapes relating to diet and leg or foot structures relating to locomotion. Defense adaptations like camouflage, bright colors, quills or horns are also discussed. Specific animal adaptations for lions, giraffes, and zebras are then outlined.

Describing matter powerpoint
Matter can exist in three states - solid, liquid, and gas. Examples of solids are ice and diamonds; examples of liquids are water and mercury. Gases include water vapor and oxygen. Characteristic properties like boiling point and melting point are used to identify substances and do not change, even if the substance changes state. Physical changes alter the substance's form through processes like melting or crushing, but do not change its chemical makeup. Chemical changes form new substances through chemical reactions.
Matter
This document discusses the properties and states of matter. It defines matter as anything that takes up space and has mass. Physical properties are characteristics that can be observed or measured without changing the substance, such as mass, volume, density, and state of matter (solid, liquid, gas). A mixture is a combination of two or more substances that keep their own properties, while a solution is a type of mixture where particles are evenly mixed but not easy to separate. The state that matter exists in depends on temperature and pressure - it can change states between solid, liquid and gas through physical processes like melting, freezing, boiling, evaporation and condensation that involve adding or removing heat.
Ppt scientific method

How do plants and animals get energy
Plants get energy from photosynthesis, which uses sunlight, air, water, and nutrients from the soil to produce food for the plant. Animals get energy by consuming either plants as herbivores, other animals as carnivores, or both plants and animals as omnivores. All living things need energy from food to grow and stay healthy.
Unit5 biological evolution
This document provides an overview of the history and development of the theory of biological evolution. It describes early religious and philosophical explanations for life's diversity before discussing scientific theories. It outlines disproofs of spontaneous generation and early evolutionary thinkers like Lamarck. It then focuses on Charles Darwin and the key elements of his theory of evolution by natural selection, which he developed based on observations from his voyage on the HMS Beagle. Darwin proposed that life arises through descent with modification from common ancestors, and that natural selection acts on inherited variation between individuals in a population to drive adaptive evolution over many generations.
Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis occurs in the leaves of plants and allows them to produce their own food. It is the process by which plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce oxygen and glucose (food). Chloroplasts in mesophyll cells are where photosynthesis takes place, using light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose, with glucose being stored as a plant's food source. Photosynthesis provides both food for plants and oxygen for animals and humans to breathe.
Class VII Physics - Density
Here are the steps Jake can take to find the density of the book using the tools he has:
1. Use the balance to measure the mass of the book. Let's say it's 1,000 grams.
2. Use the ruler to measure the dimensions of the book - its length, width, and height.
3. Calculate the volume of the book by multiplying its length by its width by its height. For example, if the book is 20 cm long, 10 cm wide, and 2 cm thick, its volume would be 20 cm x 10 cm x 2 cm = 400 cm3.
4. Use the density formula: Density = Mass / Volume
5. Plug in the values:

Introduction to Science 3.3 : Scientific Models
Scientific models are used to represent objects or systems in the natural world. There are three main types of scientific models: physical models, which resemble the actual object; mathematical models, which use equations and data; and conceptual models, which explain ideas through comparisons. Models allow scientists to study things that are too small, like cells, or too large, like the solar system. Models help illustrate scientific theories and build knowledge, though theories and models may change as new evidence is discovered. Scientific laws are formed when a theory's models consistently predict experimental results and summarize what is observed.
Forces and motion powerpoint
The document discusses various topics related to forces and motion, including:
- Defining force and different types of forces such as contact forces (applied force, friction, spring force, tension, normal force, buoyancy) and non-contact forces (gravity, electric force, magnetic force).
- Describing concepts like balanced and unbalanced forces, net force, inertia, momentum, Newton's laws of motion, and how forces affect an object's motion.
- Explaining gravity and its relationship to weight and mass, as well as other topics like buoyancy, tension, and air resistance.
Forces gr.7
Mass is the amount of matter in an object and is measured in grams. A force can change the position, speed, direction, or shape of an object. Weight is the pull of gravity on an object and is measured in Newtons. There are two types of forces - contact forces which act when objects touch, and non-contact forces which act over a distance like magnetic or gravitational forces. Balanced forces cancel each other out while unbalanced forces cause changes in speed or direction.
Living things classification
This document discusses the classification of organisms. It explains that biologists classify living things to organize them into groups to make them easier to study. There are seven main levels of classification: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. The document then provides details about the five kingdoms - Monera, Protists, Fungi, Plants, and Animals - including their key characteristics and examples. It also introduces the concepts of binomial nomenclature and discusses how organisms are named scientifically.
Adaptations
Adaptations enable organisms to survive in their environments. They arise through natural selection, where individuals with characteristics that aid survival reproduce and pass on those traits. There are three types of adaptations - structural, physiological, and behavioral - that relate to an organism's physical form, internal processes, and actions. Examples include thick fur coats, hibernation, and basking in the sun. Adaptations are the result of evolution over long periods as environments change.
Motion speed velocity_ ppt.
The document defines and explains key concepts related to motion including distance, displacement, speed, velocity, and acceleration. It provides equations and examples to calculate speed, velocity, and acceleration. Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time. Velocity includes both speed and direction of motion. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. The document uses graphs and calculations to illustrate these concepts.
Motion in one direction
This document provides an introduction to 1-dimensional kinematics, including distance, displacement, average speed, average velocity, acceleration, and position-time and velocity-time graphs.

Identifying Variables .ppt
- 2. 3 Kinds of Variables 1.) Independent Variable 2.) Dependent 3.) Controlled (Constant)
- 3. 1.) Independent Variable Something that is changed by the scientist. What is tested What is manipulated
- 4. 2.) Dependent Variable Something that might be affected by the change and measured. What is observed What is measured The data collected during the investigation
- 5. 3.) Controlled Variable A variable that is not changed and stays the same. Also called constants Allow for a “fair test”
- 6. Example # 1
- 7. Students of different ages were given the same jigsaw puzzle to put together. They were timed to see how long it took to finish the puzzle.
- 8. Identify the variables in this investigation.
- 9. What was the independent variable? Ages of the students.
- 10. What was the dependent variable? The time it to put the puzzle together.
- 11. What was a controlled variable? Same puzzle.
- 12. Example # 2
- 13. An investigation was done with an electromagnetic system made from a battery and wire wrapped around a nail. Different sizes of nails were used. The number of paper clips the electromagnet could pick up was measured.
- 14. What are the variables in this investigation?
- 15. Independent Variable: Sizes of nails.
- 16. Dependent Variable: Number of paper clips picked up.
