QUESTION 15 Hopefully you are getting the picture that science is a dynamic process, always changing as new information arises. Any individual experiment may include one or more of the components that have been discussed because there is no one formula for a successful scientific inquiry and no single rule book that is rigidly followed. So what does all this experimentation and data collection lead to? Firstly, research results have no impact if they are not shared with a community...

Kepler used the precise observations of the positions and movements of the planets and labored many years to mathematically determine that the orbits of the six planets known at the time were in the shape of ellipses. Galileo, performed experiments about the motions of objects and looked for patterns in their data. For example, Galileo found that the period of a pendulum was independent of the mass and amplitude but was dependent on the length of the string and gravity....

Background Information: Null Hypothesis Significance Testing (NHST) has long been the workhorse of the scientific method. The procedure, familiar to us from Modules 7-9, is Assume a null hypothesis Calculate a test statistic If the test-statistic reaches the designated significance level (alpha), reject the null hypothesis, usually in favor of the theory you propose Despite its ubiquity, the procedure has received a fair amount of criticism. Some of these critiques are: We often already know the null hypothesis is unlikely...

Read the following passage focusing your attention on the scientific procedures and scientific abilities illustrated in it. Think about what types of experiments (observation, testing or application) are described. Identify the hypothesis, predictions, outcomes of experiments and assumptions that appear in the passage. The standard explanation of how humans originally acquired AIDS is that HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) originally was transmitted to humans from monkeys or apes carrying SIV, simian immunodeficiency virus. How could the transmission have occurred? Several similar...
