• Defined: An organized plan for gathering, organizing, and communicating information.

• Goal: To solve a problem or to better understand an observed event.

• Used for: Provides a useful strategy for solving problems.

1.2 Pg. 11

Scientific Method

• Make an observation. (Info obtained through senses)

• Ask a question. (How does speed affect how wet you get when you are caught in rain)

• Form a hypothesis – a proposed answer to your question. (The faster your speed, the drier you will stay)

• Test your hypothesis ♧ manipulated (independent) variable (Speed) ♧ responding (dependent) variable (amount of water you accumulate) ♧ controlled experiment

• Analyze data then draw conclusions.• If hypothesis is supported with further

experiments, then develop a theory.

Provides a useful strategy for solving problems.

1.2 Pg. 11

Theories

• A theory is based on an abundance of evidence & developed once a hypothesis has been supported in repeated experiments.

• The fact that a theory is supported by experimental data does not mean that the theory is correct.

• They are never proved, only become stronger if the facts continue to support them.

• Theories are judged by how they fit with other theories, the range of observations they explain, and how well they explain observations.

1.2 Pg. 11

Laws• A statement that summarizes a pattern

found in nature is a scientific law.

• They describe an observed pattern in nature without attempting to explain it. The explanation of such a pattern is provided by a scientific theory.

• Theories are well supported explanations and laws are well supported descriptions.

1.2 Pg. 11

Empirical Evidence - A cumulative body of observations.

• The word empirical denotes information gained by means of observation or experiments. Empirical data is data produced by an experiment or observation.

• A central concept in modern science and the scientific method is that all evidence must be empirical, or empirically based that is, dependent on evidence or consequences that are observable by the senses.

• Competing interpretations of empirical evidence can lead to alternative explanations or support existing explanations.

1.2 Pg. 11

Models

• Scientific models make it easier to understand things that might be too difficult to observe directly.

• Models are a visual or mathematical representation of an object or process.

• Models are typically used when it is either impossible or impractical to create experimental conditions in which scientists can directly measure outcomes.

• Example: Street Map, Globe

1.2 Pg. 11

Answer these questions in pairs (each person writes on own paper)

1) What is the difference between a hypothesis, scientific theory, and scientific law?

2) What is an example of a scientific model?

1.2 Pg. 11

• Scientists need to be creative as they pose new questions, design investigations and develop explanations.

• Scientists around the world have replicated similar investigations/experiments and obtained similar results. (checks & balances)

• Scientists use critical and logical thinking, open-mindedness, objectivity and skepticism as they examine a scientific claim.

• Scientists accept the notion that scientific knowledge is always open to improvement and can never be declared absolutely certain.

• Scientific knowledge is subject to modifications as new information challenges prevailing theories and as a new theory leads to looking at old observations in a new way.

• The varied backgrounds, talents, goals and interests of scientists influence the development of scientific knowledge.

• Science influences society through its knowledge and world view.

• New ideas in science are limited by the context in which they are conceived; are often rejected by the scientific establishment; sometimes spring from unexpected findings; and usually grow slowly, through contributions from many investigators.

Observations• Example, "Upon magnification, the painted lady

eggs appear bluish and barrel-shaped." Observations are direct enough that most would make the same observation in the same situation.

Inferences• When we bring our past experience into making

a judgment based on an observation, it is an inference. For example, "The caterpillar appears as if it is about to form its chrysalis" is an inference, because you are interpreting observations according to knowledge from past experience.

1.2 Pg. 11

Inference

• Inferring is the process of making an inference, an interpretation based on observations and prior knowledge

• An incorrect inference is known as a fallacy. • Inference vs. Prediction: predicting is about the

future, whereas inferring is about the present

In pairs, fill out the chart.

Pg. 71.2

Science

• Science is a limited discipline that studies only naturally occurring events, while offering natural explanations for the phenomenon under study. The data must be consistent, observable, predictable, and testable, while any conclusions or theories must be tentative.

Pg. 71.2

Non-Science

• Non-Science Defined: Non-science may be defined as an area of knowledge which does not meet the criteria of science.

• Non-science topic areas may be very logical and based on good reasoning, but simply do not fall within the realm of science. They would include any belief system, e.g., philosophy, personal opinions or attitudes, a sense of esthetics, or ethics.

Pg. 71.2

Pseudoscience

• False science (pseudoscience) may be defined as a non-science which is portrayed and advertised as a legitimate science by its followers and supporters. Good examples of a pseudoscience would include  reflexology, applied kinesthetic, astrology, and extrasensory perception (ESP).

• Conclusions may be based on faulty logic or lack substantial support from valid scientific data. Pseudoscience claims often lack the ability to be supported or refuted, investigations may lack unbiased peer review.

Atoms

• The smallest particles of an element that has the characteristics of that element.

• The basic building blocks of all matter.

Pg. 1416.1

Isotopes are variants of atoms of a particular chemical element, which have differing numbers of neutrons. Atoms of a particular element by definition must contain the same number of protons but may have a distinct number of neutrons which differs from atom to atom, without changing the designation of the atom as a particular element.

A compound is a substance that is composed of atoms two or more different element that are chemically combined. Table salt (NaCl) is a

compound . It is composed of sodium and chlorine.

Pg 144

Covalent bond: the force that holds the two atoms sharing electrons. (example below: water)

Molecule: a group of atoms held together by covalent bonds. (H2O)

Ion: a charged particle made of atoms.

Ionic bond: the attractive force between two ions of opposite charge.

Pg. 1416.1

Bonds

Covalent bond

Ionic bonds

Chemical Reactions• Occur when bonds are formed or broken,

causing substances to recombine into different substances.

• This happens inside our cells.

• All the chemical reactions (rxns) that occur within an organism are call the organism’s metabolism.

• Substances that undergo chemical reactions are called reactants, and substances formed by the chemical rxns are called products.

A coefficient is a number placed in front of a term in a chemical equation to indicate how many molecules (or atoms) take part in the reaction.

Pg. 1416.1

Mixtures

• Heterogeneous Mixtures: Parts of the mixture are noticeably different from one another.

Example - Sand

• Homogeneous mixture: Substances that are so evenly distributed that it is difficult to distinguish one substance in the mixture from another.

Example – serving spoon is made of stainless steel (a mixture of iron, chromium, and nickel)

• Solution: the mixture formed when substances dissolve and form a homogeneous mixture.

• Example: spoonful of sugar in glass of hot water (stirred)

Sleet refers to two distinct forms of precipitation.

pH: a measure of how acidic or basic a solution is. A solution is neutral if its’ pH = 7.

Acid: any substance that forms hydrogen ions (H+) in water. (ex.: hydrochloric acid) pH is below 7.

Base: any substance that forms hydroxide ions (OH-) in water. pH is above 7.

Pg. 1416.1

Water

• Most life processes can occur only when molecules and ions are free to move and collide with one another.

• Serves to transport materials in organisms. (blood, plant sap)

• Polarity: when atoms form covalent bonds, they do not share the electrons equally.

• Polar water molecules attract ions as well as other polar molecules. B/c of this, water can dissolve many ionic compounds (salt) and many other polar molecules (sugar).

Pg. 1526.2

1. Which will diffuse more quickly:a. concentrated orange juice in cold waterb. concentrated orange juice in warm water

2. Water is a ___________molecule.

3. Water can creep up thin tubes in ______________.

Pg. 1416.1

polar

capillary action

Pg. 1526.2

• Water molecules attract other water molecules. The positively charged hydrogen atoms of one water molecule attract the negatively water molecule.

• Capillary action: waterhaving the unique propertyof being able to creep upthin tubes.

• Water requires more heat to increase its temperature than most liquids because water resists changes in temperature.

• Water loses a lot of heat when it cools.

• Water is like an insulator that helps maintain a steady environment when conditions fluctuate.

Water

• Water expands when it freezes, which means ice is less dense than liquid water (that’s why it floats).

• Water expands as it freezes inside the cracks of rocks. As it expands, it often breaks apart the rocks which over long periods of time helps form soil.

• Water carries substance in living systems.

• Diffusion: the net movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration in order to achieve dynamic equilibrium.

• 3 key factors that affect the rate of diffusion: concentration, temperature, and pressure.

Passive & Active transport

Pg. 1958.1

Pg. 1958.1

• Active transport: energy expending process by which cells transport materials across the cell membrane against a concentration gradient.

• Carrier proteins against concentration gradient

• Endocytosis: active transport process where a cell engulfs materials with a portion of the cell’s plasma membrane and releases the content inside of the cell.

How do animal cells and plant cells react differently in a hypotonic solution?

Pg. 2018.2

• Animal cell: the extra water may cause the plasma membrane to burst. Plant cell: the plasma membrane pushes against the cell wall, providing added support.

Cell size limitations

• Diffusion: efficient process over short distances, it becomes slow and inefficient as the distances become larger.

• DNA limits cell size: in larger cells where an increased amount of cytoplasm requires increased supplies of enzymes, more than one nucleus is present.

♧ Light–dependent rxns occur at the thylakoid membrane

♧ Pigment♧ Chlorophyll

♧ Light–independent rxns ♧ These reactions occur in the stroma, the fluid-

filled area of a chloroplasts outside of the thylakoid membranes. These reactions take the light-dependent reactions and perform further chemical processes on them. There are three phases to the light-independent reactions, collectively called the Calvin Cycle.

♧ Traits: the characteristics that are inherited.

Gregor Mendel: the father of modern genetics.

♧His study showed that one in four pea plants had purebred recessive alleles, two out of four were hybrid and one out of four were purebred dominant.
