    Study Notes

    Scientific Process Steps

    • Observation: The first step involves using tools like microscopes or telescopes to gather data about the world, enabling scientists to identify phenomena or problems worth investigating.
    • Questions: Asking questions drives the scientific process; it helps focus the inquiry, defines the scope of investigation, and paves the way for developing hypotheses.
    • Hypothesis: A hypothesis is a testable prediction based on initial observations and existing knowledge; it's a crucial element that guides experimentation and analysis.

    Purpose of the Scientific Process

    • Investigation: The scientific process provides a structured methodology for scientists to explore natural phenomena, test theories, and validate findings through evidence-based research.
