Why is the snorg hypothesis not scientific?
There is no experiment or possible evidence that could prove that invisible snorgs do not exist. So the Snorg Hypothesis is not scientific. On the other hand, the "Negative Snorg Hypothesis" (that they do not exist) is scientific. You can disprove it by catching one.
What does scentific method mean?
Scientific MethodThe scentific method sets for a process for investigating the world around us. It is a multistep process that begins with identifying a question. This is followed with the development of a hypothesis, in other words, an educated guess as to what you think will happen or how you think the question will be answered. The next step is to construct an experiment. To do that you need to make a list of the steps and procedures for the experiment and then you must gather the equipment to carry out the experiment. Performing the experiment is obvious, but just as important is recording the results of the experiment and drawing a conclusion about what the experiment said about your original question and your hopothesis.
When an experiment shows that's one variable makes another variable change and no other variables have any effect the experiment shows?
The experiment shows exactly what your title says!
When an experiment shows that one variable makes another variable change and no other variables have any effect the experiment shows what?
causation
How do a control sample and an experimental sample differ from each other?
A control sample is the experiment under regular conditions. An experimental sample is the experiment in which different variables are changed.
Why are reports published of scientific investigations?
so other scientists conducting the same experiment can see and compare results to make a valuable theory.
What is comparative data analysis and what other types of scientific investigations are there?
comparative data analysis is when you compare your data or results. there is 2 more types of scientific investigations, descriptive investigation and experimental investigation.
When does the scientific community accept the results of a scientific experiment?

What is one reason why a controlled experiment may not be possible?
because your adopted. nawh just kidding, but seriously one reason why a controlled experiment may not be possible is because...ok lets say you had an experiment of a cancer-causing chemical, they might exclude volunteers who have other serious health problems. by exerting great care in planning these kinds of investigations, scientists can discover reliable patters that add to scientific knowledge.

Which statement best expresses a basic scientific assumption?

What is being tested in a scientific experiment?

Single variable in the scientific method?
the factor in an experiment that is missing the variable but is the same as other facotors in every other way.
What is control in experiment?
A scientific control is used to minimize the unintended influence of other variables on the same system
What is a scientific Theory and how is it different then a hypothesis or a scientific law?
A scientific theory is an experiment that still needs to be tested, but is believed to be true. A hypothesis is a fact and data based guess as to what the result(s) of an experiment will be. A scientific law is proven to be true and states that the results of the experiment will always be the same, and needs no further testing. An example of a scientific theory is the cell theory, which states that all living things are composed of at least one cell and that cells come from other cells.
