You establish a controlled variable from which you can compare your results from your experimental variables.
1.) List the needed materials. 2.) Plan the variables. 3.) List the procedures.
The first step of the scientific method requires scientists to observe in order to obtain information. The next step is to formulate a hypothesis.
They're the parameters that vary. Hence the name.

a descriptive investigation is a scientific ivestigation that collects data which measure or decribe objects or events. it collects qualitative & quantitative data. it includes a question, but no hypothesis ; no variables are manipulated .
There are a great many traits that are useful in scientific investigation. Being an excellent observer is a useful trait for example.
1.) List the needed materials. 2.) Plan the variables. 3.) List the procedures.
In an experiment containing a number of possible variables only one of these should be altered in each individual experiment. Otherwise it is not possible to determine which variable is responsible for a particular change.
Independent Variables, Dependent Variables and Extraneous Variables.
The first step of the scientific method requires scientists to observe in order to obtain information. The next step is to formulate a hypothesis.
A scientific investigation is a method of identifying a question through observations. Next, a hypothesis is formed as a tentative explanation for the question. Third, experiments are performed to test the hypothesis. Finally, a scientific paper is written to explain the conclusions.
