Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

What is the difference between a growth mindset and a fixed mindset? Explain
Growth mindset is a bleief that you can grow your brain and what you are born with is just a starting point. Fixed mindset is the belief that what you are born
True or False: A theory can become a law? ______________
False
The variable that is being measured in an experiment.
Dependent
The ________ variable is what you change or manipulate during an experiment.
Independent variable
Write a hypothesis using the information provided. Independent variable: the amount of water given to a plant (15 ml, 20 ml, 25 ml) Dependent variable: the plant's growth in cm
If a plant is given 15ml, 20 ml and 25 ml, the the plant will grow the tallest in 25 ml of water because plants need water to grow.
True/False - Your experiment is reliable if you change more than one thing. Explain your reasoning.
False

You are creating a graph for an experiment testing whether the amount of water (20 ml, 40 ml, 60 ml ) affects plant height (cm). What should go on the y axis (vertical)
Plant growth in centimeters
You are creating a graph for an experiment testing whether the amount of water (20 ml, 40 ml, 60 ml ) affects plant height (cm). What should go on the x-axis (horizontal)?
Amount of water
You are creating a graph for an experiment testing whether the amount of water (20 ml, 40 ml, 60 ml ) affects plant height (cm). What would be a good title for the graph?
