|
Control Group |
reference group, unchanged |
|
Experimental Group |

Hypothesis |
Initial building block in the scientific method. Many describe it as an “educated guess,” based on prior knowledge and observation. |
|
Theory |
Well-substantiated explanation. A set of statements that have been confirmed over the course of many independent experiments. |
|
3 Pats of Cell Theory |
1.) All known living things are made up of one or more cells. 2.) All living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division. 3.) The cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms. |
