00:01 All right.

00:01 So we have five multiple choice questions to tackle.

00:06 All right.

00:06 So we want what is reliable knowledge not considered? so it doesn't have to be true with 100 % certainty, but reliable means it certainly has a high probability of being true.

00:24 It's been justified.

00:27 So that takes care of b and c.

00:30 And that rules out d.

00:31 So reliable knowledge is not unjustified.

00:34 It has to be justified to make it reliable.

00:36 All right.

00:39 For question two, if you are measuring the effective fertilizer on plant growth, independent variable is going to be the fertilizer, and the dependent variable is going to be the measured growth of the plant.

00:48 So choice d is our answer for dependent.

00:51 In an experiment, a researcher attempts to demonstrate what.

00:56 So when you do an experiment, you're basically you have a hypothesis and you're attempting to prove or disprove it.

01:01 So the best answer is choice b, a cause and effect relationship between variables, you know, the hypothesis leading to a conclusion and so on.

01:10 You don't always need to make an experiment about social structures or social data.

01:16 They can be broader than that or on entirely different topics.

01:20 Also, you're never manipulating variables...
