Question

What steps are always part of both the process of technological design and the process of scientific investigation? Check all that apply.

building a prototype
conducting tests or trials
analyzing results
determining affordability and availability
researching related information

Answer 1

Check these three:
- conducting tests or trials
- analyzing results
- researching related information

Reason: Both scientific investigations and technological design start with background research, then perform tests/experiments (or trials) and analyze the data. Building a prototype is specific to design/engineering, and determining affordability/availability is a design/implementation concern, not a required step in scientific investigation.
