The theory developed by Wegener that the continents of the Earth were once a part of a single big super-continent is based on his observations that these continents fir together as a part of the jig-saw puzzle. And these observed continents have similar flora and fauna along with similar rock formations. Such a derivation of theory from observations is an inductive reasoning.

Hence, the answer is 'inductive reasoning'.

NeX [460]

Answer:

Option-A

Explanation:

Penicillin is an antibiotic drug that is derived from the fungal species of Penicillium molds especially the<em> Penicillium notatum</em>.  The penicillin acts by disrupting the formation of the cell wall and thus prevents the growth of the bacteria.

The discovery of penicillin was accidental when he was studying the petridish of staphylococcus and he found that due to avoidance while the experiment, molds grew in the petridish.  The area around the mold was clear and clear rings without the bacteria were easily observed. This lead to the discovery of the penicillin compound.

Thus, Option-A is the correct answer.
