Steps of the Scientific Method
- Observation: Soil near a lime tree was dug up. Patsy's health improvement with increased medication. Plant size differences in shaded vs. sunlit areas.
- Hypothesis: If Patsy takes more medication, she will recover faster. Plants in shade grow smaller than plants in direct sunlight.
- Experiment: Mixing 3mls of reagent A with 5mls of reagent B, heating for 5 minutes, and observing the results. This step also involves observing a cell under a microscope.
- Data Recording: Detailed notes and drawings of observations were made during the experiment.
- Conclusion: Drawing inferences from the data. Inferences were made regarding changes in health, plant growth, and chemical reactions.
