How do scientists obtain knowledge about the world?
Sphinxa [80]
Well, scientists depend on science.They use the process of observation. But there are processes for these. The processes are;
Asking a question; Scientists wonder how specific happenings can be explained, they look for an answer.
They perform research; the scientists study the  particular thing, and look for reasons for a particular happening.
They form a hypothesis; a hypothesis is a statement which is not universally true, they are observations that haven't been agreed upon.
They test their hypothesis; they perform experiments to find out if their hypothesis is true.
They analyse the data and draw a conclusion; they record their hypothesis and write down their end result.
They pass across their result; they pass their new observation across to other people.

Why is fishing for some kinds of ocean fish controlled by laws?
lora16 [44]
C is the answer. Due to the current state of the world economy; people, if left to their own devices, would fish as much as possible so they can sell their fish to make money. Current technology means we can catch as many fish as we want (trawlers etc.). The problem with this is that there is only a finite amount of fish in the sea. If we were to fish them without limits in place, we could cause them to go extinct.
