Lesson 1 Flashcards
What are the six (6) processes of the Scientific Method?
Observation, Question, Hypothesis, Experiment, Analysis, Conclusion
What are the five (5) Scientific Concepts?
Facts, Hypothesis, Theory, Law, and Postulates
For years, it has been repeatedly verified by scientists that the Sun is the center of the solar system. This scientific concept is an example of a:
Fact
“If Michael’s father is born pure Canadian, and his mother is French, despite residing in the Philippines for five years, he will always be half French, half Canadian.”
What Scientific Concept is demonstrated by the statement above?

The statement above demonstrates which Scientific Concept?
Theory
“An object at rest will remain at rest unless an external force has been applied to it.”
This Scientific Concept is an example of:
Law
In mathematics, it is assumed that a line once drawn goes on infinitely. What Scientific Concept does this demonstrate?
Postulate
It is an embedded core philosophy in scientific method stating that science must be only based on observable knowledge, and anything that is not observable is not part of mainstream science.
Logical Positivism
This branch of the modern sciences is useful in studying the life of organisms as well as understanding their anatomy and physiology.
