LESSON#7 Flashcards
Science is developed from the need of understanding the
NATURAL PHENOMENA
It is a set of complex theories and ideas based on observing, testing, analyzing and then presenting phenomena.
SCIENCE
Scientists have developed several techniques to achieve a set of complex theories and ideas, the general process that has been formulated is known as the
SCIENTIFIC METHOD
Most important part of application of science is
TECHNOLOGY
studies of Static and lightning in the 1700s
BEN FRANKLIN’S
Alessandro Volta
FIRST BATTERY
The first completely synthetic plastic was made by a chemist in the
EARLY 1900s
In the ______, biologist began developing high yield varieties of corn, wet and rice which when paired with new fertilizers and pesticides developed by chemist
1940s
In the late 1700s, _________ first convincingly showed that vaccination worked
EDWARD JENNER
Scientist and doctors established the theory that many diseases are caused by germs
1800s
Biologist discovered the first antibiotic
1920s
The logical process adopted by scientist to develop knowledge of nature and present it as acceptable fact.
this method is based on gathering empirical data through observation and experimentation and the formulation and testing of hypothesis.
SCIENTIFIC METHOD
You can’t study what you don’t know if there. This is why Scientists are so curious ——- they’re always looking for patterns, trends, questions and problems that we don’t understand.
MAKE AN OBSERVATION
Once a scientist finds an interesting thing to study, they need to ask a question that hopefully they can answer.
ASK A QUESTION
To find out answer to your question, you need to know what potential answers are.
DO BACKGROUND RESEARCH
Statement of what you think the answer to your question is.
FORM A HYPOTHESIS
A good hypothesis should be __________, it’s possible to prove it wrong
FALSIFIABLE
Scientific method consists of the following four elements
- MAKE AN OBSERVATION
- AS A QUESTION
- DO BACKGROUND RESEARCH
- FORM A HYPOTHESIS
How do you find an answer to your hypothesis, you can conduct an _________
CONDUCT AN EXPERIMENT
This is what we’ve all been waiting for ——— what is the answer to the question.
In this step, scientist to take a step back, look at the data and decided whether to accept or reject the hypothesis
ANALYZE RESULTS AND DRAW A CONCLUSION
You’ve just tested an important piece of information.
Eat something that nobody else in the world knows.
The final step of the scientific process is to __________.
REPORT YOUR RESULTS
Scientist generally report the results in scientific journals, where is report has been check over and verified by other scientist in a process called
PEER REVIEW
