CONCLUSION | The hypothesis stated the type of water sealer would affect mass of wood blocks soaked in water. The data collected supports the hypothesis. |
PROBLEM | Starts with “Does” or “Will”, contains IV and DV, and ends with “?” |
PROCEDURE/EXPERIMENT | -Written as numbered steps -Each step begins with a verb, “command” statements |
CONCLUSION | -Restates hypothesis -States whether hypothesis is supported or not supported |
PROBLEM | Will the type of water sealer affect mass of wood blocks soaked in water in grams? |
HYPOTHESIS | If the type of sealer changes, then the amount of mass wood blocks will change. The blocks that have the sealer that contains carboxyl will gain the least amount of water. |
RESULTS | The wood blocks with carboxyl applied gained an average of 26.32 grams. The wood bricks with acetyl acetate applied gained an average of 33.77 grams. |
PROBLEM | Will ___________affect ______? |
HYPOTHESIS | If ___________ decreases, then ________ will decrease. |
PROCEDURE/EXPERIMENT | 1. Get 30 wood blocks 24 cm x 6 cm. 2. Apply 25 mL of carboxyl sealer to 10 of the wood blocks. 3. Allow to dry for 24 hours. 4. ….continued |
RESULTS | -Contains numbers. -Usually refers to statistical analysis like average, mean, median, or range. |
RESEARCH | Using the library to find information about electricity. |
CONCLUSION | The hypothesis is supported. The number of worms in the container did affect the height the marigolds grew. |
PROBLEM | Does the amount of earthworms added to a container of marigolds affect the height? |
RESULTS | The average growth of plants exposed to electricity was 5.3 centimeters. The average growth of plants not exposed to electricity was 5.6 centimeters. |
HYPOTHESIS | As the plants exposure to electricity changes, then the growth of the plants will change. |
CONSTANTS | parts of the experiment kept the same so the only difference is the result of independent variable |
RETESTS/NUMBER OF TRIALS | number of times the experiment is repeated for comparison |
INDEPENDENT VARIABLE | part of the experiment that changes because of the experimenter |
CONTROL GROUP | the group not exposed to the independent variable |
DEPENDENT VARIABLE | the part of the experiment that is being measured and may be affected by independent variable |
CONTROL GROUP | The dependent variable without the independent variable |
RETESTS/NUMBER OF TRIALS | 10 times for each group of independent variables |
CONSTANT | The same amount of time. |
