From the ancient greeks to more recent times, scientists saw the brain as a "blank slate," meaning that it is completely blank a

t birth and anything can be written onto it. however, as studies of genetics and evolution expanded throughout the twentieth century, scientists found more evidence that many of our behaviors and thoughts are determined by genetics long before a child is born. therefore, the understanding of human thinking has moved away from the "blank slate" because the explanation that thoughts and behaviors are a mix of what humans are born with and what humans learn better fits experimental results and observations. the decline of scientists' acceptance of the "blank slate" idea is an example of how a(n) can change to better fit evidence.

I believe the answer is: theory

Theory refers to the initial ideas that is used as an explanation for a certain principle.
 Even though technically theory is just a form of guess that initiated before making the experiments, the guess is based on the general principles that accepted by most people in that field and could be changed depending on the available evidence.

Why did the soviets not allow people to leave occupied East Germany
kolezko [41]
Its been a while since I did this topic, but I believe it was mostly because under communism there was little work for intellectuals, so they were often the ones who left the country. This resulted in a 'brain drain', a lack of knowledgable people. I seem to remember reading about the entire maths department of a university just up and leaving at one point. You could also argue that it was damaging for the image of communism if so many people were trying to leave.

leva [86]

Americans began to rethink the nation's environmental policies partly as a result of the oil embargo.

When the members of the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries, led by Saudi Arabia, declared an oil embargo in October 1973, the 1973 oil crisis—also known as the first oil crisis—began. Targets of the embargo were countries that had backed Israel during the Yom Kippur War. Moreover, they also imposed an embargo on the US in retaliation for its decision to resupply the Israeli military and to use this as leverage in the peace talks following the war. The 1979 oil crisis, also referred to as the Second Oil Crisis or the 1979 Oil Shock, was an energy crisis brought on by a decline in oil production following the Iranian Revolution.
