Explain the statement “Scientific knowledge is the result of debate and conformation within the scientific community.”
spayn [35]

Answer:

What this statement means is that experimentation is not enough, but that true knowledge comes from the analysis of results in a critical and meticulous way

Explanation:

Scientific knowledge is based on the scientific method and the results of the research, however that information is useless if it is not interpreted.

When the results are analyzed by scientists who support the same theories and have the same opinions, the results are not enriched as much as when exposed to different points of view. The debate tests the hypothesis giving rise to more complete answers.

When a plant is genetically identical to its parent plant what is this called
tamaranim1 [39]

Hello! My name is Zalgo and I am here to help you out on this amazing day. The way that the younger plant looks the same as the parent plant is because of "Asexual Reproduction". Asexual Reproduction is how plants can reproduce. Considering it is a plant and not a human asexual means that plants reproduce without the need of "sexual intercourse".

I hope that this helps! :P

Zepler [3.9K]

Diatoms contain chloroplasts that have four membranes. These four membranes are evidence of secondary endosymbiosis (Option c).

<h3>What is secondary endosymbiosis?</h3>

Secondary endosymbiosis is a hypothesis used to explain why diatom chloroplasts have four membranes.

According to this hypothesis, diatoms received different genes from distinct photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic ancestors.

The acquisition of genes of different ancestors led to diatoms having chloroplasts with four membranes.
