Which of the following is not correctly linked?a. model: a representation of an object used in an experimentb. standard deviation: a form of statistical analysisc. principle: a theory that is not supported by experimental evidenced. data: the results of an experiment or observation
A controlled experiment O includes at least two groups, one differing from the other by two or more variables includes at least two groups, one of which does not receive the experimental treatment is repeated many times to ensure that the results are accurate includes one group for which the scientist controls all variables
The 'control group' is an essential component of an experiment. This is because 1. A control group allows one to determine if a particular result is due to the experimental variable. 2. No, it's not essential in experimentation. A control group is not always necessary it depends on the experiment. 3. A control group allows for multiple variables to be tested at the same time. 4. A control group is required for the development of a prediction.
Design a SI modeled, detailed , yet hypothetical, biology experiment of your choice. In clear terms lay out all parameters of the experiment, including all controls and variables. Make sure that you clearly indicate where each step of the SI process applies(observation, question, hypothesis, analysis etc
The null hypothesis is: That the measured value is zero That the proposed model is not correct and the measured factors have no effect on the pattern That the proposed model is correct and perfectly explains the pattern That the experiment is null and void
A control group is __________. a. a set of individuals that have a certain characteristics or receive a certain treatment b. the standard against which an experimental group is compared c. the experiment that gives conclusive results
What variable is the one that you can manipulate or change? It is sometimes called experimental variable
What do you call a sample that goes through all the steps of an experiment but is not exposed to the experimental variable? control group dependent variable independent variable all variables/groups are exposed to the experimental variable
When presenting a slide that shows experimental data you should explain the experiment that gave that data you should discuss the hypothesis being tested O you should discuss whether or not the results support or refute the hypothesis all of the above
Which of the following statements is true according to Peter Singer? The use of animals in experiments is never justifiable. The use of animals in experiments is justifiable if the animals do not go endure pain. The use of animals in experiments is justifiable if only one animal in one experiment will save thousands of human lives and the animal received a benefit from the experiment. The use of animals in experiments is justifiable in any circumstance since they are lesser beings. None of the above.
Please explain What are biological concepts of this experiment, limitations and improvements…Experimental techniques & the effect of the change of variables on the results
(1 question with multiple steps please answer) Identify the component characteristics of a scientific investigation Suggest alternative hypotheses that could be tested by the design Evaluate the validity of conclusions based on the given results Suggest ways to improve the experimental design Define and recognize examples of the experimental group, experimental variable, control group, control variable, independent variable, and dependent variable, and data
