Describe life science. 2. What benefits to living things can life science provide? 3. Where do life scientists work? What do life scientists study? 4. Do you agree with the following statement? The information learned by life scientists isn't very important. Explain your answer. Scientific Method Questions 1. 2. 3. 4. What are the 6 basic steps of the scientific method? What causes scientific knowledge to change and grow? Design an experiment to test the following hypothesis: “Temperature affects how often crickets chirp." Begin by making a prediction using the "If...then..." format, then the hypothesis and experimental design. The table below gives the information on the growth of a kind of bacteria that lives in your intestines. The table shows how long it takes one bacterium to divide and become two bacteria. Plot this information on a graph, with temperature as the x-axis and the time to double as the y-axis. What temperature allows the bacteria to multiply in the least amount of time? Temperature (degrees C) Time to Double (minutes) 10 130 20 60 25 40 30 29 37 17 40 19 45 32 50 no growth Enrichment Tools of a Scientist Questions 1. 2. 3. How is the temperature related to the energy? If you are going to measure the mass of a fly, which metric unit would be appropriate? Name at least two benefits of using the International System of Units? Unit 1 Homework 5
