Scientific Method
The scientific method is the basis of scientific investigation. A scientist will pose a question and formulate a hypothesis as a potential explanation or answer to the question. The hypothesis will be tested through a series of experiments. The results of the experiments will either prove or disprove the hypothesis. This category should contain questions and answers regarding the scientific method.

What is an activity to show organic waste is biodegradable while plastic is not?
Organic waste Organic waste is a major component of municipal solid waste. Most originates from household waste but commercial, institutional and industrial waste can also contain significant proportions of organic waste e.g. market waste. Organic waste is biodegradable and can be processed in the presence of oxygen by composting or in the absence of oxygen using anaerobic digestion. Both methods produce a soil conditioner, which when prepared correctly can also be used as a valuable source of nutrients in urban agriculture. Anaerobic digestion also produces methane gas an important source of bio-energ

What is the correct order for the parts of a workout?
Progression of a proper workout to me is first and foremost sweat. When you notice you are excessively sweating doing the workout properly, that is your way headed in the right direction. Also motivation and dedication, are key tools to proper progression when working out. You ever heard of cancel culture? well try to apply that cancel culture to laziness, I'm not saying workout every single day, but at least 3 times a day.
How did scientific method influence European societies beginning in the 16th century?
It provided scientists with evidence that many traditional beliefs were incorrect. The practice of experimental testing gradually laid the foundations of our understanding of the natural world and provided the groundwork for the development of scientific theories.

How do scientists repeat experiments already done by someone else?
They try to measure the same circumstances as the original study in the same way. So, for instance if the original study was trying to figure out if cell phones were harmful, and the original study tested cell phones on rats, they would get a bunch of rats and expose one group to cell phone signals all day, and the other group not at all, and see if they got the same results as the first people who did that... they are basically checking the work of the first scientists, and seeing if the same thing happens every time.
The purpose of including a control in experimental manipulation is to establish a baseline for comparison, allowing researchers to determine the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable. The control group helps to isolate the specific impact of the experimental treatment by accounting for other variables that could influence the outcome. This ensures that any observed changes can be attributed to the manipulation rather than external factors, enhancing the validity and reliability of the results.
What is it called when scientists examine how well Scientists follow the scientific method?
A Peer Review
What steps of scientific method immediately follows state the problem?
The following step would be to collect data and make observations, so that a hypothesis can be formed.

How was Descartes way of thinking connected to the scientific method?
The scientific method's first step is to form a question.
How does superstitious and scientific beliefs affect the people's lives?
They are utterly different.
'
Superstition used to affect people's lives when most were superstitious, sometimes with awful results as in the cruel drives against so-called "witchcraft" from Mediaeval times to the 18C.
'
Nowadays superstition only affects those who choose for some reason of their own, to be superstitious, so frighten themselves into certain, absurd actions or "precautions" against something imagined but non-existent in reality.
'
Scientific "beliefs" are called Hypotheses, and are suggestions to explain certain observations or unsolved questions. If testing them shows strong evidence in favour, they become Theories. If a theory is proven to work all the time it becomes a Laws, no longer a belief. Scientific laws affect everyday life in all manner of ways. For example:
'
Your reading this on a computer powered by mains electricity (even if via batteries as in a lap-top), is one obvious way in which scientific laws affect your life - so is having the radio playing in the background as mine is now. Another is that you might now go and make a cup of coffee, or drink a glass water straight from the tap. (If you can't do the latter that's not a scientific failing, but a commercial or legislative one!)

What are the four parts to the scientific method?
There are more than just four:
1. Make an observation.
2. Ask a question.
3. Make a hypothesis.
4. Conduct an experiment.
5. Draw conclusions.
6. Share your results.
7. Do other experiments done by others agree?
8. Yes or no?
9. if no, do again.
It is totally wrong and unacceptable.

Why do we need to use scientific method?
The scientific method is essential because it provides a systematic approach for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. It helps ensure that conclusions are based on empirical evidence and objective reasoning, minimizing bias and errors. By following this structured process of observation, experimentation, and analysis, scientists can reliably test hypotheses and build a coherent understanding of the natural world. Ultimately, the scientific method fosters advancements in technology, medicine, and various fields by promoting critical thinking and reproducibility.
