Why is there no single set of a streps in the scientific method?
the scientific method is not a series of exact steps but rather a strategy for drawing sound conclusions. :)
If you can get the correct value then amend the record. But it may be too late for that - you may not be able "to go back in time" to obtain the correct value. In that case, make a note of the faulty data point and either exclude it from analyses. If the data are multivariate you may be able to estimate the "true" value but will have to give up a degree of freedom in any statistical analyses.
What is the first step in the scientific method that scientist take when they begin their work?
Well it all kind of depends on what kind of scientists you want to become... but first you start by studying whatever you want to study so say you were an animal scientists you find an animal like uh... spider you could study that animal & find out it's mysterieslike what's the most poisinous spider?? That answer would be a black widow.
In science what distinguishes a hypothesis from a theory?
A Hypothesis is a statement or objective one has set out to test or query.
eg An unsupported object will fall when dropped.
This can be proved or disproved through experimentation. After testing the above hypothesis multiple times (with a scientific method) one can deduce the statement that all unsupported objects fall when dropped.
Through more study one can form a scientific theory to explain the happenings in the experimentation. Using the about example the theory of Gravity and its effect on objects can be formed. A scientific theory can be disproven after formation.
TLDR: first comes unproven hypothesis, then after experimentation a scientific theory is formed.
What is a tripod and how it is used?
A tripod is a general term for a stand or support
with three legs. It is often used to support a camera
gun, or to place above the Bunsen burner in the science lab
to heat/boil anything.
In the science laboratory, a metal gauze is placed on top of it to
give support to the beaker (An iron ring clamp with a ring stand
can often be used instead and an iron ring allows for easy height adjustment).

1. Choose a problem
2. Research your problem
3. Develop a hypothesis
4. Write your hypothesis
5. Test your hypothesis
6. Organize your data
7. Write your conclusion
What is the terminal velocity of body in a freely falling system?
Assuming the object starts at rest, it is zero. However, if the object is thrown upward or downward, its inital velocity will not be zero.
What do you need to have a valid scientific hypothesis?
It must be testable, and must be falsify-able

Is guessing at what you think will happen - based on what you have read - or observed?
Only if you have read or observed something similar in the past.
All guesses of future events is based on the sum total of your own past experiences, and is the major function of the brain.
Note that you live ONLY in the past, but that manipulating the future is an absolute requirement for survival. Think of life as driving a car with the windshield painted black ... your skill in using what you can learn from your rear view mirrors is critical for getting to your destination.
More Information:
For most, in trying to predict future events, intellectual knowledge is filtered by experientialknowledge. It is the integration of these two sources of information that forms the main resource upon which the projection of future outcomes is based.
What is a situation when scientific method can be apply?
Try to see if a paper airplane will fly farther with 5 paperclips on the nose as opposed to 0,1,or 3.
Question: Will the # of paperclips on the nose of a paper airplane cause the plane to fly farther?
Hypothesis: 5 paperclips on the nose of a paper airplane will make he plane fly farther than with 3,1,or 0 paperclips on the nose.
Experiment: Make paper airplanes and fly them with 0 paperclips on the nose. Repeat this test 3 times. Record about how many meters each test flew. Repeat this with 1 paper clip, than 3 paperclips, and finally 5 paperclips.
Analyse: Record the average of the 3 tests. write down the steps you took in completing the experiment. Also write down the controlled, dependent, and independent variables of the experiment.
Conclusion: 5 paperclips on the nose of the paper airplane will make the plane fly farther than with 0,1,or 3 paperclips on the nose.
Compare: Compare the averages, variables, and steps taken along with any other data, to that of other scientists. Remember, a valid experiment can be repeated with duplicated results.
A ring shape coral island found far from land is called?
A ring shaped coral island found for from land is called an atoll.
What are the steps in a scientific conclusion?
They use the Scientific Method. The Scientific Method is made up of steps scientists take to draw a conclusion... It is simple 9the grade biology...
Step 1: Form a Question
Step 2: Research the Question
Step 3: Form a Hypothesis (educated guess)
Step 4: Conduct an Experiment (use quantitative and qualitative data)
Step 5: Form Your Conclusion Based on Results

What is a induced fit hypothesis?
a. The substrate can be altered so it is induced to fit into the enzyme's active site. b. The enzyme changes its shape slightly as it binds to the substrate. c. The enzyme is altered so it is induced to fit many different types of substrate.
d. Several sites on an enzyme can be induced to act on a substrate.
Why do scientists follow a set order of steps of steps when carrying out a scientific investigation?
Science is not a thing that tells us stuff. Science, by definition, is the art of executing the steps you have enquired about.
1. See a thing.
2. Come up with an explanation of the thing.
3. Make a prediction of another thing that will happen as a result of your explanation.
4. Design an experiment that will prove your prediction is true, or an experiment that will prove it is false.
How can the scientific method be applied in your daily life?
Looking for your house keys:
hypothesis 1.: "my keys are in my jacket pocket."
test 1. - look in jacket pocket, keys not there.
hypothesis 2.: "they are on top of my dresser."
test 2.- look on dresser, keys not there
hypothesis 3. - "I left them in the front door last night"
test 3. - look in door, keys are there.
The scientific method just means proposing an hypothesis, testing it, and (re)proposing a (new?) hypothesis based on the data, and testing that one ... and repeating.
So figuring out why your DVD won't play on your new TV, looking for your keys, and so on can all be accomplished through the scientific method.
empirical research is the study that research put himself/herself into practice, e.g. experiments,fieldwork, interview, observation
non empirical refers to the study that data gather from existing information, e.g. documentation, literature
A Peer Review
No, it's an igneous rock, made from cooling and consequently solidification of a magma. Animals (or any other organism) capable of leaving behind a fossil can not survive and do not live in a magma.
Fossils can be found in sedimentary rocks or in metamorphic rocks (if the protolith, the original rock, was sedimentary). In metamorphic rocks, fossils are generally intensely deformed and hence difficult to recognise/identify.

What is the purpose of a control unit?
A control unit (which is part of the computer processor) directs the flow of information. Think of it like a "traffic guard" if you may- directing traffic so the vehicles go to their destination quickly and safely. This is more or less what a control unit does, it controls where every bit of data goes.
