Unlike the methods of early scientists, how did Sir Francis Bacon believe basic laws of science should be determined?
butalik [34]
<span>Unlike the methods of early scientists, Sir Francis Bacon believed basic laws of science should be determined by using inductive reasoning based on empirical evidence. You cannot formulate a law in science if you don't have evidence to support it - so you cannot just take a basic truth and formulate your law based on that - there has to be some kind of evidence to prove your theories. Also, based on those evidence, you will induce a conclusion necessary for such laws, which is something Bacon understood, unlike early scientists.</span>

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) domain

Explanation:

The father of taxonomy is Linnaeus. Taxonomy helps in classify and naming organisms. The modern taxonomy has eight levels of classification. Domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species.

Domain is the highest level of classification so it is the largest category that would include closely related species. When we go from domain towards species the number of similarities increase and number of organism decrease and vice versa is true when we move from species to domain. So the right answer is domain.
