So I decided to put the answers for the questions for my class's google slides because I thought maybe someone would find this helpful. 1. The Scientific method is a set of procedures that scientists follow in order to gain knowledge about the world 2.The six steps include a question, hypothesis, experiment, observation, analysis, and conclusion. 3.The scientific method may not follow all of the steps in the same order because certain things may occur before others. please like this so others can find it, I hope this helps you!

Thinking in the way ofthe scientific method is why you can solve your parents tech-issues. The method is based on the assumptions, that every problem can be solved and all well prepared experiments produce repeatable results.

And Jesus Christ He rose three days later, on from rising on the third day He conquered death and from conquering death He can forgive our sin. And He is faithful and just to forgive if you will only ask Him, and if you do ask Him into your heart by admiring your a sinner believing God raised Jesus Christ from the dead, and confess your faith in Jesus that He is your Lord forever and ever, then you will go to Heaven to praise and worship and serve our God.
