scientist use observation and data by using common knowledge of all the things they already know , and by writing what the see down *Data* they can make an inference as to why something has happend

If a scientist noticed that bacteria were not growing in some test tubes is it observations hypothesis's or experimentation and why?

This scenario would fall under observations. The scientist noticed that bacteria were not growing in the test tubes, which is an observation of a specific phenomenon. Experimentation involves designing and conducting tests or experiments to investigate hypotheses based on observations. Hypotheses are proposed explanations for observed phenomena that can be tested through experimentation.


What is a test or trial that is performed in order to discover something?

An experiment is a test or trial that is performed in order to discover something. It involves making observations, measurements, and collecting data to test a hypothesis or answer a specific question.


What is the scientific model?

I suspect you mean the scientific method. Briefly outlined, the scientific method consists of the following tasks: Specify a testable null and an alternative hypothesis based on preliminary tests and observations. Design tests that will determine the validity of the null hypothesis to a specified degree of confidence. Collect data and observations for the tests according to requirements of tests and data sample spaces. Test the hypothesis using collected data and observations. Make conclusions and report on the validity (or not) of the hypothesis. Make recommendation for further studies or applications of the experimental results.


What are the two methods scientist use to obtain empirical evidence?

Scientists obtain empirical evidence through observation and experimentation. Observations involve gathering information through senses or instruments, while experiments involve manipulating variables to test hypotheses and gather data. These methods help researchers make objective conclusions based on evidence.


An investigation that is controlled?

Why is careful obersavation important to being a scientist?

A scientist may create an hypothesis on the basis of their observations. If their observations are carelessly made or recorded then any hypotheses they offer will be inaccurate reflections of nature. A scientist may alternatively collect observations to test an hypothesis. If these observations are carelessly made or recorded then the conclusions that the scientist makes about the hypothesis could very well be incorrect. At the very least the conclusions they draw would not be based on sound evidence (because the observations are unsound).


Why are many scientific observations made in the form of measurements?

Scientific observations are often made in the form of measurements because measurements provide quantitative data that can be used to analyze and understand natural phenomena objectively. Measurements allow researchers to record and compare data, test hypotheses, and make predictions based on empirical evidence. By quantifying observations, scientists can establish patterns, relationships, and principles that form the foundation of scientific knowledge.


What do scientist do to collect data?

Predict, test, observation, what acually happend


How do scientist use models to test theories?

They use them to make new observations, that may result in the change of their theory.


What do scientists do after they experiment and collect the data?

Grab a burger! xD. Make observations and test them out and then create a theory


What experiments is the scientist at work conducting in the laboratory?

The scientist is conducting experiments in the laboratory to test hypotheses and gather data for research purposes.

When you form general ideas and rules based on your experiences and observations you call that form of reason?

If you then test your theory - it is the Scientific Method.generalobservations
