The statement “This type of evidence can be checked by others” best explains the importance of empirical evidence in science.
Explanation:
There are all kinds of evidence used in science, but empirical evidence is obtained as a result of <u>repeated experiments and observations</u>. This evidence is used to either support or argue against a scientific theory. Empirical evidence is the preferred evidence since this kind of evidence can be peer reviewed, i.e. reviewed by other scientists and/or researchers. In other words, the experiment can be redone, and the <u>evidence can be tested</u>.
The garden plants and snails stay balanced as they are still being eaten. However, if the cat is removed, the birds will overpopulate and then the snail would be eaten and decrease faster which gives garden plants an increase in population due to the decrease in snails. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Designing some instruments does help science, but it doesn't advance ideologies of science.
Explanation:
Science is based on theories and laws. Scientists are constantly trying to explain the concepts of the universe by ideas. Sure, instruments do help scientists gather information and such, but ideas and philosophies, theories and laws are the ones that are most important. Without new ideas in science, we would not be able to hypothesize many things, or even develop new instruments.
