Steps of the Scientific Method

Match the example to the step in the scientific method

AB
He put both the bouncy ball and golf ball at the top of the ramp. He released them one at a time and waited until they stopped rolling. He then measured that distance from the end of the ramp.Perform the experiment
Which ball will roll down the ramp further, the bouncy ball or the golf ball?State the question or the problem
Stephen predicted that the golf ball would roll farther than the bouncy ball.Identify the hypothesis
Golf balls roll farther than bouncy balls down a ramp.Draw a conclusion
The golf ball rolled 26 m and the bouncy ball rolled 20 m past the end of the ramp.Collection of data
She recorded that no eggs were broke at 10 cm, 3 white and 4 brown eggs broke at 20 cm, and 8 white and 7 brown broke at 25 cm.Collection of data
She hard-boiled 12 white eggs and 12 brown eggs. She then dropped them from different heights to see which ones broke easiest.Perform the experiment
Belinda thought that brown eggs would be harder than white eggs.Identify the hypothesis
White eggs and brown eggs have shells that are about the same hardness.Draw a conclusion
Which type of chicken egg shell is harder, white or brown?State the question or problem
Johnny planted two potato plants in his garage. He put a green light over one and a regular light over the other. He turned the lights on for ten hours every day.Perform the experiment
After collecting the results, Johnny wrote down that potato plants grow the same in green and regular light.Draw a conclusion
Johnny figured that potato plants would grow better in green light.Identify the hypothesis
She collected the results and wrote down that the wood glue bridge held 8 science books before breaking and the super glue bridge only held 3 books.Collection of data
Susie estimated that super glue would hold three times as much weight as wood glue.Identify the hypothesis
Does super glue really work better than wood glue?State the question or problem
She built identical bridges out of Popsicle sticks. She used wood glue on one and super glue on the other.Perform the experiment
Wood glue works better than super glue in holding Popsicle stick bridges together.Draw a conclusion
Do potato plants grow better in green light or regular light?State the question or problem
Johnny collected data every week. After eight weeks, the potato plants were both 175 centimeters tall.Collection of data
