Describe the specific steps a scientist would take to solve a particular problem.

this

Explanation:

Step 1

DEFINE THE SPECIFIC PROBLEM. -The starting point is recognizing and stating a very specific question/

Step 2

COLLECT INFORMATION BY MAKING OBSERVATIONS. -Gather background information on the problem, and make many observations, information obtained by using the senses.

Step 3

FORM A HYPOTHESIS. -Utilize your observations to form a hypothesis, a testable explanations for the problem.

Step 4

TEST THE HYPOTHESIS BY EXPERIMENTATION. -An experiment is a procedure that tests a hypothesis by the process of collecting information under controlled conditions. A controlled experiment involves two groups: the control group and the experimental group.

Step 5

ORGANIZE AND RECORD COLLECTED DATA. -The information obtained during the experimental procedure, the data, must be accurately recorded.

Step 6

DRAW CONCLUSIONS. -The data must be analyzed to determine if the results supported the hypothesis. If the hypothesis is not supported, propose a new hypothesis to test.
