Your main response should be a minimum of 150 words (more is OK). You must also post a minimum of one significant reply to classmate’s post that contribute to their learning. The reply should be a minimum of 100 words.

In your replies please provide suggestions for how the other students’ scientific method examples can be improved. Examples: How can the hypothesis be edited to make it more specific (better)? Is a proper control group included? Are the independent, dependent and controlled variables correctly identified? How can the experimental design be improved? Also consider sharing any useful videos, tutorials or web-sites that helped you better understand the scientific method.
