- 16. Distance between each square on the grid of a graph. (All the possible values of the data on the axes)
- 17. All axis labels should include this. (Hint: "Because this is science, not math!")
- 19. Type of graph that shows categories or groups of data.
Down
- 1. The experiment where all variables are kept the same except one.
- 3. You have to find the ________ of your data then divide by the number of tick marks in the graph to make a scale.
- 4. Data that is descriptive like color or shape.
- 6. The variable(s) that stay the same between trials or tests.
- 7. The variable you intentionally change between trials and tests.
- 8. A proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence. It serves as a starting point for further investigation.
- 9. Rows and columns used to organize and record data. (two words no space).
