Prediction is more than a guess, it's an educated guess based on other facts you have learned. Some of this learning has been informal through experience, and other learning has been formal through schooling. Think back to the very first time you knew that adding ice to a beverage made the liquid cold. Or the first time you understood that heat on one side of glass and cold on the other side fogs up a window. Or the first time you realized Rock Salt melts ice. Don't worry--most of us don't recall making these realizations for the first time! But experiences like those help us to logically make predictions about the behavior or results on people, plants, objects, and even things we have never witnessed or experienced. like earth's atmosphere, or the solar system. For example, you know earth has gravity and if you drop something, it falls to the floor or ground. You've learned outer space has no gravity and objects are weightless. You understand while a car's engine lets it move forward or backward along a road, airplane engines keep a plane up in the air and moving only forward. So if a car engine breaks, the car is already on the ground, but a plane will fall from the sky without engines. Each piece of knowledge like these gives you predictive abilities when doing a small experiment. Prediction implies trial and error-- you predict, test, and see if you were right---or discover / predict why you were wrong. Some experiments mean we aren't as good at predicting--such as, will a tomato seed grow if we replaced the water with milk, juice, sugar water, or salt water. But each time we "experiment" (not just in school but in real life), we develop our "predictive abilities" and make better predictions. We also learn to reason our reasons-- to be able to make a prediction AND give logical reasons for why we think something will or won't work the way we predict. Prediction therefore can be both what will or what will not happen, or just one. For example, your younger brother states milk will make a tomato seed grow-- after all, he knows milk is good for people. But you learned milk has things that don't let seeds grow and not enough of what a seed does need. So you disagree with your brother. The fun part, though, is testing out our predictions---just in case we might be wrong-- or to prove we were right!
What else can I help you with?
What must you do before making a prediction?
Before making a prediction, it is important to gather and analyze relevant data, consider potential variables and biases that may impact the prediction, and clearly define the objective and assumptions underlying the prediction. Additionally, ensuring that the prediction is based on a reliable and valid model or methodology can help improve the accuracy of the prediction.
What step follows making a prediction?
After making a prediction, the next step is to conduct an experiment or gather data to test the validity of the prediction. This allows you to evaluate whether your prediction was accurate and make any necessary adjustments.
In the scientific method what step follows making prediction?
Conducting an experiment

What do you call the one who studies motion forces and energy to explain the way things work?
A physicist studies motion, forces, and energy to explain the way things work.
What is an easy way to explain syllables to a child?
An easy way to explain the concept of syllables to a child is to break down the syllables in the actual word with claps or drum beats. In this way, the child learns that they can identify syllables by counting the beats.
What is an easy way to explain a collision domain?
Data packets colliding with one another when being sent through repeaters is an easy way to explain a collision domain. This collision only includes a section of a network.
What is an easy way to explain how mountains are formed?
An easy way to explain how mountains are formed is through geological activities. Most mountains are formed as a result of volcanic eruptions while others are formed through erosion and other activities.
What happends if you test a hypothesis multiple times and the data doesn't support your prediction?
That means that your prediction was wrong and that you should include your results in the conclusion and try to explain some of the reasons why your prediction was wrong and if it was wrong because you were doing the experiment wrong.
Explain the role of internet as a medium of digital entertainment?
The Internet is an easy way to view digital media and just as easy to distribute the media (if that's what you were asking)
How do you make a prediction about Julie in Julie of the Wolves?
A prediction is a guess. When you hear that the story is about a girl that runs away and lives with wolves, you might guess that this is not going to be easy. You might guess that she may be harmed by the wolves. No prediction is wrong. It is just your best guess.
How do you say i chose this because in a scientific way?
My prediction was..... as a result
Which is correct - an easy way or a easy way?
AN easy way
What is the difference between explanation and prediction?
Explanation is where you KNOW the topic and you can explain it. Predicting is where you want to know what will happen in the future.
What is a good conclusion on a paper about probability?
Explain what the differences are in the results you have found. Include the quesion you have been trying to find the anwsers too and relate the results. Explain your prediction and state what you have found
Explain in a easy way whats an adjective?
An Adjective is a word that describes a Noun. (That's the simplest definition of Adjective that you'll be able to find.)
Can anyone explain God?
Easy, nothing in it.
