- Q1What is science?A method to prove opinions and beliefs.A collection of ancient wisdom.A belief system based on personal experiences.A form of art and creativity.A systematic and organized way of studying the natural world through observation and experimentation.30s
- Q2What is the scientific method?A religious ritual performed by scientists.A standardized process used by scientists to conduct experiments and gather knowledge.A set of rules to follow in order to invent new technologies.A mathematical equation to solve complex problems.A philosophical approach to understanding human behavior.30s
- Q3What is a hypothesis in scientific research?A proven scientific theory.A fixed conclusion that cannot be changed.A philosophical belief not based on evidence.A proposed explanation or prediction that can be tested through experimentation and observation.An untestable statement.30s
- Q4What is a scientific theory?A well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is based on a body of evidence.An assumption or guess without any supporting evidence.A temporary explanation that will eventually be proven wrong.An opinion or belief held by scientists.A mathematical equation used to solve scientific problems.30s
- Q5What is a scientific law?A universal truth that is not subject to change.A belief system followed by scientists.A description of an observed pattern or phenomenon in nature, typically expressed mathematically.A guess or conjecture about a scientific phenomenon.An unproven statement without any evidence.30s
- Q6What is a control group in an experiment?A group of participants who are not aware they are part of an experiment.A group of participants selected randomly for the experiment.A group of participants who are secretly manipulated by the researcher.A group of participants who receive a different treatment than other groups.A group in an experiment that does not receive the experimental treatment and is used for comparison.30s
- Q7What is peer review in scientific research?A process of self-evaluation conducted by scientists.A process in which experts in the same field evaluate and critique a research paper before it is published.A process of conducting experiments in a group setting.A technique for communicating scientific findings to the public.A method of promoting research papers without any evaluation.30s
- Q8What is a variable in scientific research?A hypothesis that has been proven to be true.A strategy or plan for conducting scientific investigations.A random and unpredictable factor that affects the outcome.A fixed and unchangeable element in an experiment.Any factor that can be manipulated, controlled, or measured in an experiment.30s
- Q9What is a control variable in an experiment?A variable that is manipulated by the researcher.A variable that is unknown and unpredictable.A variable that only applies to control groups.A variable that is kept constant or unchanged throughout the experiment.A variable that is measured and observed in the experiment.30s
- Q10What is the difference between a scientific law and a scientific theory?A scientific law is subjective and can change over time, while a scientific theory is universally accepted.A scientific law is specific to a certain field of science, while a scientific theory applies to all areas of science.A scientific law is based on experimental evidence, while a scientific theory is based on speculation.A scientific law describes observable patterns or relationships in nature, while a scientific theory explains the underlying mechanisms or causes of those patterns.A scientific law is a hypothesis that has been proven true, while a scientific theory is an educated guess.30s
- Q11What is the difference between an observation and an inference in scientific research?An observation is based on personal opinion, while an inference is objective.An observation is a hypothesis, while an inference is a conclusion.An observation is a direct or indirect measurement of a phenomenon, while an inference is a logical interpretation or explanation based on observations and prior knowledge.An observation is a guess or assumption, while an inference is a proven fact.An observation is subjective, while an inference is objective.30s
