QuestionAnswer
Constant A constant is a fixed value (like in math) that can NOT be changed in any way possible.
Variable A variable is something that can be controlled, and either dependent or independent.
Dependent variable This variable can only change in response to the independent variable
Experimental group A experimental group is different than a controlled/control group in a scientific experiment, hypothesis, or research, because it isn't controlled, it can go the way physics allows.
Independent Variable The variable in a experiment or a scientific sequence that is always changed
Inference The thing scientists LOVE to use after asking questions, what is that called? An inference!
Observation The act of observing and writing off of what happens during an experiment and how everything is sequenced.
Peer review Scientists act as peers by sharing their findings by publishing their hypotheses, experimental methods, results, and analysis in scientific journals
Bias A bias is a personal thing rather than actual scientific research and evidence, and it is always either with or against something.
Controlled group Its exposed to the same conditions as the experimental group except for its changes in the independent value.
