Course: OCR Level 3 Alternative Academic Qualification Cambridge Advanced Nationals in Applied Science.
Unit F181: Science in society
Topic Area 2: Handling scientific data
2.4.1 Identifying patterns and
relationships to:
Draw conclusions
Accept or reject a hypothesis
Inform further scientific investigation
Mathematical skills include:
- Calculate the mean, median, mode, range (e.g. height of group of organisms, number of stomata in a plant).
- Determining the intercept and/or gradient using y = mx + c.
- Calculating the rate of change from a graph with a linear relationship (e.g. rate of transpiration).
- Drawing a tangent to a curve on a graph to calculate the rate of change (e.g. amount of product produced against time, at a fixed concentration of enzyme).
- Calculate the standard deviation of a set of data.
