a hypothesis must include an if...then... statement with the dependent variable and the independent variable
an independent variable is getting changed
the dependent variable is the variable getting measured and is affected by the independent variable
controlled variables are variables that are kept the same
validity is the accuracy of the experiment and whether it measures what it is intended to measure.
reliability is the consistency of the experiment's data and whethe there are any outliers
an outlier is a data point that is significantly different from the other data points in the data set
to calculate an average you must add all data and divide by the number of data
a conclusion is a summary of the experiment and whether your hypothesis is correct and if the experiment was reliable and valid or not
igneous rocks are formed from magma that cools and crystallises either at volcanoes on the surface of the Earth or while the melted rock is still inside the crust
igneous rocks can have many different compositions depending on the magma they cool from
extrusive rocks are formed on the surface of the Earth from lava
intrusive rocks are formed when magma cools and solidifies within the crust of the Earth
magma is a molten rock that is under the earth's surface
when magma rises from the ground, it is called...
lava
the faster the cooling rate, the smaller the crystals grow
the slower the cooling rate, the bigger the crystals
igneous rocks can be classified into two types based on how they form.
Extrusive rocks are formed by fast-cooling magma or lava
Intrusive rocks are formed by slow-cooling magma or lava
