Direction: Read the passage and write the information being asked in the next part.

Zane wanted to get a pet but he was not sure whether to get a cat or a dog.
Zane read several books about dogs and cats to have more ideas about them. He
thought that maybe a dog would be a better pet for him. He asked some friends to
lend him their pets for a week. In the first week, Zane borrowed the cat. In the
second week, he borrowed the dog. At the end of the second week, Zane made a list
of the pros and cons of having each type of pet. When he examined the lists, he
decided that a dog was the pet for him.

The steps in the scientific method are listed below. Below each step, write
