Why is pseudo science not considered real science
swat32

Pseudo-science is not considered real science because it is not testable.

Answer:  Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Pseudoscience primarily includes beliefs, theories or practices that are somehow incompatible with the scientific facts. The pseudoscience can’t be tested on the basis of science.

Let’s take an example of astrology. Some people believe that stars and other celestial bodies draw a significant impact on their life i.e. Good or bad thing it's just because their stars are working either in a positive or negative manner.

But, this belief doesn’t have any well-proved or authentic background over which the whole concept can rely on. Hence, pseudoscience is not taken as a real science as a lack of strong proves.
