Scientific Research Proposal

Create your own scientific research proposal that explores a science topic of interest to you. The topic you select should be related to the study you will analyze. Describe the steps you would take to set up a sound experiment based on the scientific method. Your proposal should include the following components: a. Your observations that lead up to the question. What information is known, and what information is still unknown? b. Your question. What are you specifically asking? c. Your hypothesis. Based upon scientific information, what do you expect the answer to your question to be? d. Your prediction, this should be an if/then statement and specific to your experiment. e. A description of how you would conduct an experiment to test the hypothesis (include sample size, a description of the control and experimental groups, length of time for the study would be conducted and the specific steps in the experiment) f. Your expected results. Based upon what you know, what is the most likely outcome of your experiment? g. Your conclusions and discussion. If you get the expected results, what does that mean for your hypothesis and general question? If you do not get the expected results, what does that mean for you hypothesis and general question.
