A scientific theory is a specific type of theory used in the scientific method. The term "theory" can mean something different, depending on whom you ask. 

"The way that scientists use the word 'theory' is a little different than how it is commonly used in the lay public," said Jaime Tanner, a professor of biology at Marlboro College. "Most people use the word 'theory' to mean an idea or hunch that someone has, but in science the word 'theory' refers to the way that we interpret facts."

Crank
<span>Yes, a person's ability to recover from or adapt to difficult times and is a key aspect to thriving. If a person does not have this ability, they will remain very affected by the pain that they experienced. The only way to truly thrive after experiencing trauma is to try and let go and/or move on. If you don't, you may remain stuck in the past and it will become harder to enjoy the present and the future.</span>

Answer:

I Agree

Explanation:

Following the advent of globalization, when information technologies changed the forms of consumption and production of economies, the competitive advantages of countries became more volatile. This is because technology is rapidly expanding and countries specialize faster, increasing competition. For example, until recently only US and Korean companies had the know-how to produce quality smartphones. However, not long ago, and very quickly, China began to produce high quality smartphones, changing the pattern of smartphone consumption around the world, previously dominated by the two major American and Korean companies.
