Ignore the evidence (experimental data) and write what I think the correct answer is
Scientific Evidence
My opinions on what I think the answer is
Step 2B: Do Research
Step 4: Perform the Experiment
Step 6: Write/Draw Conclusions
Step 3: Make a Hypothesis
Step 1: Make observations about the natural world
Step 5: Analyze the Results
I write a final claim based on the evidence anyway
Scientific Questions
Scientific Method
Step 2A: Ask a Question
Data or observations only from an experiment or the environment
If I think my data from the experiment is wrong then I NEVER
Stepwise process used to answer a question through experimentation
This is where we answered the question "How does the amount of cellulose effect the cell thickness" AFTER performing the experiment
Factual questions that are answered without feeling or opinions
If I think my data from the experiment is wrong then...
When we looked at different slides under the microscope that ALL had different amount of cellulose in them to see how thick the outer membrane was for each.
We identified some Sci Q's based on our observations of the cells in the picture like "How does the amount of cellulose effect the cell thickness"
This is where we watched a video of what cellulose is.
Evidence for a conclusion (claim) comes from...
When we examined our observations of what we saw during the lab and organized them by cell membrane thickness AND by amount of cellulose in each cell.
When we looked at a picture of cells belonging to a plant, animal, and protist and compared them.
These are observations, numbers, data, etc. gathered during a lab/experiment
This is where we answered the question "How does the amount of cellulose effect the cell thickness" BEFORE performing the experiment
Evidence for a conclusion (claim) NEVER comes from...
