SCRIPT FINAL PAPER QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS COMPLETE SOLUTION BUNDLE
●● Challenges facing science and society
Answer: Loss of Diversity, (Re)emerging Diseases, Climate Change due
to Global Warming
●● Strengths of Science
Answer: publicly understandable, self correcting, predictive, anti-
authoritarian
●● Law
Answer: Describes a pattern in nature - the "what"
●● Theory
Answer: Explanation to why a pattern exists - The "why" or "how"
●● null hypothesis
Answer: No difference between control and experimental, experimental
will have no effect
,●● Alternative Hypothesis
Answer: Expect a difference between groups, experimental variable will
have effect
●● Inductive Reasoning
Answer: A type of logic in which generalizations are based on a large
number of specific observations
●● Deductive Reasoning
Answer: reasoning in which a conclusion is reached by stating a general
principle and then applying that principle to a specific case (The sun
rises every morning; therefore, the sun will rise on Tuesday morning.)
●● independant variable
Answer: the thing that will be changed in each experiment
●● dependent variable
Answer: The outcome factor; the variable that may change in response
to manipulations of the independent variable

Answer: a factor other than the independent variable that might produce
an effect in an experiment
, ●● "ose"
Answer: Sugar
●● "ase"
Answer: enzyme
