So scientists can know for certain if the factor they're testing affects the outcome and isn't caused by another factor which isn't being measured. It elimiantes the chance of another factor affecting the outcome of an experiment.
To find the variable in the experament
When their hypothesis for the conducted experiment is accurate.
They make question of what they see and experiment them with scientist instrument
The reason this experiment was important is because he wanted to find out if there was any other intake besides water and soil and there was and it was carbondioxide so it was important to find out carbondioxide.
The Scientific Method: observation, hypothesis, experiment, verification, peer review.
Facts in science change because scientists do experiment's and find out new things.
You need to control variables in an experiment so as to make sure that only the variable you are testing and changing is the one affecting the results of your experiment. For example, in an experiment to find the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis of plant, you'll change light by putting a plant in sun and another in dark but you must not change carbon dioxide level for both plants so by that you have controlled other variables in the experiment(variables which must be the same always in the experiment).
Scientists do their test more than once, or get their colleagues and peers to do the same experiment in order to verify the results of their experiment. This is called reproducing an experiment and its results.
A waste of money and resources ..... You may also have to restart/rerun an experiment when you find out your methods of evaluating the test results do not fit or your hypothesis was wrong :-(
It's important because they Need to find facts..
It's important because they Need to find facts..
Scientists repeat others' experiments to double check their findings as well as to find new information that might have been missed initially.
