  1. The independent variable is
    one of the things you change in an experiment
    the result of the experiment
    the only thing you change in an experiment
    an educated guess


  1. On a graph the dependent variable is on
    the x axis
    the y axis
    either axis - it does not matter


  1. The first step in any experiment is
    research the problem
    state the question
    form a hypothesis
    collect data


  1. What statement is true
    You can have 2 - 3 variables
    You can have several constants
    The hypothesis must be correct
    You can only test one variable


  1. This experiment tests different fertilizers effects on plant growth. Which statements are true

    They must use the same size cups
    they can use different plants in each cup
    they must water them all with the same amount of water
    they must give the plants the same amount of light


  1. Which factor would be on the x axis on a graph

    height
    water
    water and fertilizer


  1. I know how to create an experiment design diagram. (1 being poor 5 being really good at this)
     
      1 2 3 4 5  
    1  5


  1. I can write a lab report (1 being poor 5 being really good at this)
     
      1 2 3 4 5  
    1  5


  1. This data would be best represented by a

    line graph
    pie graph
    scatter plot
    bar graph
