Which question requires a controlled experiment to answer?
, Which type of rock contains the most calcium?
Which planet has the most moons?
Which elements are found in Earth's atmosphere?
Which fossils formed earliest in Earth's history? - SELECTED ANSWER 👀 Which
type of rock contains the most calcium?
Sir Isaac Newton discovered that the force of gravity between two masses increases
if the masses increase, and decreases if the distance between the masses increases.
No experiments have ever contradicted this relationship.
Which type of scientific statement is this?
Hypothesis
Theory
Law
Prediction - SELECTED ANSWER 👀 Law
The well-accepted scientific explanation for many characteristics of Earth's crust
states that the crust is broken into several large plates. These plates move slowly
over the mantle below because of convection and other processes. Earthquakes and
volcanoes are most common at places where the plates interact. Evidence from
physics, chemistry, and geology supports this explanation.
Which type of scientific idea is this explanation an example of?
