Document Summary
Inquiry search for natural causes for natural phenomenon: observed + measured, systematic (defined pattern for science) Discovery science: making observations gathering info lead to conclusions, ex. Sequencing of human genome use inductive reasoning to derive: based on inductive reasoning general principles. Scientific process: hypothesis driven science, observations/problem/pattern, background info, scientific hypothesis, proposed explanation for a set of observations. Educated guess: made using inductive reasoning, tentative explanation, not a theory, falsifiable, leads to predictions tested, deductive reasoning, logic, start with general principles then get into specifics all organisms are made of cells + humans are, ex. , then humans are composed of cells: experiments for further observations, test predictions. Language of science: theory, significant support from testing, law, what always occurs under certain circumstances. Molecules: form when chemical bonds are between 2 or more atoms, described by chemical formula, ex. H2o: molecules have mass molecular mass, sum of all atomic masses, ex.
