1. Accuracy - Compares a measurement to the real or accepted
value.
2. Bias - Occurs when a scientist's expectations change how the
results of an experiment are viewed.
3. Constant - In an experiment, a variable that does not change
when other variables change.
4. Control - Standard used for comparison of test results in an
experiment.
5. Density - Mass per unit volume of a material.
6. Dependant Variable - Factor that changes as a result of
changes in the other variables.
7. Experiment - Organized procedure for testing a hypothesis; tests
the effect of one thing on another under controlled conditions.
8. Graph - Visual display of information or data that can provide
a quick way to communicate a lot of information and allow
scientists to observe patterns.
9. Hypothesis - Educated guess using what you know and what
you observe.
10. Independent Variable - Factor that, as it changes, affects the
measure of another variable.
11. Mass - Amount of matter in an object.
