What are the 6 steps in the scientific method?

Question

like for an experimental project. is it.
Identify problem
make hypothesis
research
experiment
state results
state conclusion???

ok i'm in 8th grade so can u put it in words that i can comprehend. this is for a simple science fair. thnx for your help

Answer 1

The scientific method involves the following basic facets:

Observation. A constant feature of scientific inquiry.
Description. Information must be reliable, i.e., replicable (repeatable) as well as valid (relevant to the inquiry).
Prediction. Information must be valid for observations past, present, and future of given phenomena, i.e., purported "one shot" phenomena do not give rise to the capability to predict, nor to the ability to repeat an experiment.
Control. Actively and fairly sampling the range of possible occurrences, whenever possible and proper, as opposed to the passive acceptance of opportunistic data, is the best way to control or counterbalance the risk of empirical bias.
Falsifiability, or the elimination of plausible alternatives. This is a gradual process that requires repeated experiments by multiple researchers who must be able to replicate results in order to corroborate them. This requirement, one of the most frequently contended, leads to the following: All hypotheses and theories are in principle subject to disproof. Thus, there is a point at which there might be a consensus about a particular hypothesis or theory, yet it must in principle remain tentative. As a body of knowledge grows and a particular hypothesis or theory repeatedly brings predictable results, confidence in the hypothesis or theory increases.
Causal explanation. Many scientists and theorists on scientific method argue that concepts of causality are not obligatory to science, but are in fact well-defined only under particular, admittedly widespread conditions. Under these conditions the following requirements are generally regarded as important to scientific understanding:
Identification of causes. Identification of the causes of a particular phenomenon to the best achievable extent.
Covariation of events. The hypothesized causes must correlate with observed effects.
Time-order relationship. The hypothesized causes must precede the observed effects in time

Answer 2

1 State a Problem 2 Gather Information 3 Form a Hypothesis 4 Test the Hypothesis 5 Draw Conclusions 6 Report Results

Answer 3

The simple one, the one you will most likely use is:

# 1. Observe some aspect of the universe.
# 2. Invent a tentative description, called a hypothesis, that is consistent with what you have observed.
# 3. Use the hypothesis to make predictions.
# 4. Test those predictions by experiments or further observations and modify the hypothesis in the light of your results.
# 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until there are no discrepancies between theory and experiment and/or observation.

Answer 4

Identify problem
Make hypothesis
Reasearch
Do an experiment
Record and analyze data
State conclusion

Answer 5

no 4 an experiment it is

1. aim of experiment
2. apparatus
3. procedure
4. observation
5. conclusion

Answer 6

problem- what for breakfast?
hypo- eggs
research or data- eggs, cereal, oatmeal etc
experiment-eat eggs
state results- mmm that was good i ate eggs
conclusion- i ate eggs and support hypo

seeems like u got it
