Answer:
The three characteristics of science are objectivity, verfiablity and reliability.
Explanation:
- Apart from the above characteristics of the science its objective and systematic exploration and is accurate and is abstract in nature. As regarding the advanced studies in the fields of the oceanographic sciences the earth has been studied in terms of the ocean circulation, fishery productivity and the oceanic process that have made it possible to understand the earth better.
- <u>The discovery of the hydrothermal vents that were the earliest signs of the origin of the bacteria and the origin of the life forms on the planet is still verifiable and provides us with the reliable evidence of the existence of the pioneer species that got energy form the interiors of the planet.</u>
Out of the given statements, Science consists of proven theories that are understood to be true explanations of reality is not consistent with the major hallmarks of science.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Hallmarks of science are the factors that need to be logically acceptable about any given theory for it to be called 'scientific'. These hallmarks are specific, nor absolute neither relative in nature.
For a theory to qualify scientific hallmarks, it can also be at the stage of a proposed hypothesis, not necessarily a true explanation of true reality. For example, the theory of relativity was still considered a scientific theory before Albert Einstein proved it to be true.
Answer: Formation of Iceberg
Explanation: A glacier is a very large mass of ice formed overtime by the compression of snowfall. Glacier are formed in very high altitudes and very cold parts of the Earth.
When a glaciar is exposed to ocean currents: it can break to form icebergs which are large mass of floating ice. This is breaking of glaciers is dependent on the temperature of the ocean tide flowing towards it.
