Planning Your Depth Study (HSC SSCE Biology): Flashcards

Predictive statement of expected relationship between variables

Variable you purposefully change and test

Result you measure that changes with independent variable

Variables kept constant to ensure fair test

Repeat measurements give same results within uncertainty

How close a result is to the expected or true value

Processes and data measure what was intended

Variability of measurements; how closely grouped they are

Measurements differ from true value by consistent amount

Unavoidable variations causing scattered data points
