The statement, "F<span>or a lot of bad ideas science is society's garbage disposal" tells us the following about scientific attitude and critical thinking:

1. Curiosity</span><span> about the world around us- A scientific attitude involves curiosity about various phenomena in the world around us. For instance, scientists are curious about topics such as: cell functioning in humans, how to treat diseases like cancer, how to increase levels of happiness, etc. 

2. S</span><span>kepticism about unproven claims and ideas- </span>A scientific attitude is characterized by skepticism about unknown and unproved claims or theories. Scientists do not accept a theory or idea to be true unless it is rigorously tested and proven by legitimate scientific experimentation.  For instance if a scientists hears that a certain drug cures heart disease, he or she should be wary and skeptic of that claim unless it is scientifically proven.<span>

3. H</span>umility about one's own understanding- A scientific attitude lastly involves examining our own ideas and understandings before believing that we are correct. When we objectively examine our own ideas and verify that it can be scientifically proven, that is when we are adopted a scientific attitude by showing humility about our own understanding.

What are the main economic differences between the northern states and the southern states prior to the Civil war?
Vikki [24]
<span>The population of the Northern states was more than twice that of the Southern states. Despite the fact that many people, in both the Northern and Southern states, worked on farms during the time before the Civil War, the Northern become both more industrialized and more urbanized, while plantation agriculture remained the focus in the South.  The industrial transformation which took place in the North caused the two territories’ economies to develop very differently. Transportation improved via railroad development and manufacturing exploded in the North, making it attractive to opportunity seekers looking for improved wages in the North and West states. The cities in the areas offering manufacturing jobs experienced major population growth which triggered extensive housing and urban development, and provided an economic environment conducive to the establishment of a middle-class made up of skilled and white-collar workers.</span>
