The scientist eventually observes the cells undergo a sudden and radical shift in their structure/shape and their motility (abil
ity to move). He asks himself questions about what is causing this shift in behaviors and begins to design an experiment to determine the answer. Briefly describe how the scientist practiced both the exploration and testing aspects of scientific inquiry
The scientist raises a question about cellular phenomena that is tested by a hypothesis-led procedure, and the resulting information may then be used to find the reasons for his observations
Explanation:
The scientific method is a rigorous process that involves a series of steps: 1-to make observations about the real world, 2-to ask a question related to these specific observations, 3-to raise a working hypothesis, 4- to test the hypothesis, 5-to analyze the results and 6-to obtain conclusions (i.e., reject or confirm the hypothesis). In the scientific method, a scientific question must be measurable, defined and testable. Moreover, the scientific hypothesis must be a well-defined and coherent conjecture which is tested by experimental or observational procedures in order to seek answers to the scientific question.
