  • Independent Variable

    The variable that is intentionally changed or manipulated by the experimenter.
  • Dependent Variable

    The variable that is measured or observed; the outcome response data.
  • Control Group

    The experimental baseline group kept under standard conditions with no treatment applied.
  • Ionic Bond

    A chemical bond formed via the complete transfer of electrons between atoms.
  • Covalent Bond

    A stable chemical bond formed when two atoms share valence electrons.
  • Hydrogen Bond

    A weak electrostatic attraction between a partially positive H atom and a partially negative atom.
  • Acidic Solution

    A solution with a pH below 7 containing a high concentration of H+ ions.
  • Basic Solution

    A solution with a pH above 7 containing a low concentration of H+ ions.
  • Logarithmic pH Scale

    A scale where each whole unit change represents a 10-fold difference in H+ concentration.
  • Protein Monomer

    Amino acids linked together by peptide bonds to form polypeptides.
  • Scientific Hypothesis

    A testable and falsifiable statement predicting the outcome of an experiment.
  • Role of Control Group

    Serves as a baseline to compare the effects of the treatment in an experiment.
  • Subatomic Particle with Negative Charge

    Electron, which orbits the nucleus of an atom.
  • pH 3 vs pH 4 Acidity Difference

    pH 3 is 10 times more acidic than pH 4.
  • pH 10 vs pH 8 Basicity Difference

    pH 10 is 100 times more basic than pH 8.
  • Example of Acidic Substances

    Stomach acid (pH 1.5-2.0) and lemons (pH 2.3).
  • Example of Basic Substances

    Oven cleaner (pH 13.5) and ammonia (pH 11.7).
  • Type of Investigation in Light Exposure Experiment

    Experimental, where the independent variable is manipulated and other factors are controlled.
  • Result of Light Exposure on Bean Plants

    Plants exposed to natural sunlight grew taller, supporting the hypothesis.
  • Macromolecule: DNA and RNA

    Nucleotide polymers.
  • Macromolecule: Protein

    Amino acid polymer.
  • Macromolecule: Lipid

    Hydrophobic hydrocarbons or fatty acids.
  • Macromolecule: Carbohydrate

    Short-term energy storage molecules.
