The first step in reading scientific articles is to understand the relationship between the concepts that are presented. Sometimes you will need to explain these relationships as well. For example, when you take a science test or write a research report about a science topic, you will have to explain how concepts are related.
To practice this important skill, read the article about the science of scuba diving. It describes exactly what happens to a diver's blood when he or she comes up from the ocean floor too quickly. When you are finished reading, you will complete a worksheet.
