Document Summary

Recognize that the scientific method has a few steps: Propose a possible explanation for the observation (null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis) *disprove your null hypothesis to prove that your alternative hypothesis is true. Test the observation by experiment (must be able to be repeated) If the observation disagrees with experiment, the observation is wrong (form new hypotheses based on what"s right and wrong) Design challenge: -identify the problem(s) (this could include identifying big problems and decomposing them into smaller nested problems) Evaluate the proposed solutions against criteria for success. *this is used to create solutions for problems. Prokaryotic cells lack organelles that are typically found in eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells also have membrane bound organelles and also contain multiple chromosomes found within a nucleus. To distinguish between different eukaryotic cells, we compare animal cells with plant cells. The primary difference between these cells is that plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts while animal cells do not.
