The Steps…

Step 3 Hypothesis](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604a245fb262a95d926756f0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Step 1
Problem or Question• Scientists begin with a question about something they are curious about or a problem that needs solving.

Step 3 Hypothesis](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604a245fb262a95d926756f0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Step 2
Research or Observation After posing a question, scientists gather
related information about the topic.

Step 3 Hypothesis](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604a245fb262a95d926756f0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Step 3
Hypothesis• A possible
explanation for
observations that
relate to the
scientific question
(an educated guess)
If this is compared to that then this will happen.

Step 4
Design and Conduct an Experiment• Scientists then create an experiment that is
designed to test their hypothesis
• Then DO IT!

Step 3 Hypothesis](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604a245fb262a95d926756f0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Step 5
Analyze Data• Scientists then look at the data they collected and “make-sense” of it. Usually this is done by making graphs.

Step 3 Hypothesis](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604a245fb262a95d926756f0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Step 6
Conclusion• Is the hypothesis correct or incorrect?

Step 3 Hypothesis](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604a245fb262a95d926756f0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Step 7
Publish• The experiment is published and the information is shared with others!
