    - The scientific method involves making observations, stating a problem, forming a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis, and drawing a conclusion. - There are two main types of reasoning used in science: inductive reasoning which makes conclusions based on repeated observations, and deductive reasoning which makes conclusions based on established principles. - Key steps in the scientific method include developing a controlled experimental setup with independent, dependent, and controlled variables to test hypotheses.

    - control and experimental set ups

    GEN SCIENCE must be used for comparison of


    results
    BRANCHES OF SCIENCE - independent varirables - factors
    that are not affected by other
    a. Physical Sciences variables; usually predetermined
    - study of nature and properties of - dependent variables - factors that
    the universe and all its contents are affected by other variables
    Astronomy - controlled variables - factors that
    Chemistry are kept the same for all set ups
    Geology - manipulated variables - factor that
    Meteorology is different in each set up; usually
    Physics the variable under study
    b. Biological Sciences 5. Conclusion
    - study of living organisms and life - results may be analyzed for validity
    itself - final answer to the problem
    Botany - should always be true based on
    Sociology analysis
    c. Social Sciences
    - study of humans as individuals, the KINDS OF REASONING
    human society and human a. Inductive Reasoning - a
    interactions conclusion is made based on
    Psychology repeated observations ; basis of
    Sociology most research conclusions
    b. Deductive Reasoning - a
    SCIENTIFIC METHOD conclusion is made based on
    established principles and
    1. Making Observations concepts; basis of most research
    - make an observatio using one’s conclusions
    senses
    2. Stating the problem MEASUREMENTS AND QUANTITIES
    - must be clear and specific
    - must be measurable and have an Scientific Notation
    atainable solution - a shorthand representation of
    - usually stated in question form numbers using powers of 10
    3. Forming the hypothesis STANDARD TO SCIENTIFIC
    - Hypothesis is a tentative solution or
    a prediction of the outcome FUNDAMENTAL QUANTITIES
    - must be a clear and specific - physical quantities that can be
    statement determined using measuring
    4. Testing the Hypothesis devices
    - implement the hypothesis under Length - distance between two points
    carefully considered conditions
    Mass - amount of matter present in a
    substance
    Time - temporal duration between two
    events
    Temperature - degree of heat present
    in a substance or object
    Amount of substance - measure the
    size of an ensemble of entities
    Electric current - the rate at
    whichcharge flows through a surface
    Luminous Intensity - rate of flow of
    light

    Measurement - standard unit to


    express the size, amount, or degree of
    something

    Systems of Measurement:
    a. English System - evolved from
    medieval systems of measurement
    b. Metric System - based on
    multiples of 10, except for time

    GIGA 9

    MEGA 6
