Answer:

D. No, since some theories better account for more important data than do others.

Explanation:

While it is true that total objectivity is impossible, and no theory can fully explain a phenomenon, some theories are better than others at explaining things (mostly because they are built on previous theories).

For example, Einstein's General Relativity is better at explaining the Universe than Newton's laws of general motion, or Copernicus' heliocentric view of the Universe, even while the three theories are an improvement over the Ptolemaic geocentric cosmology that dominated Western thought for millenia.

And while Einstein's theories are not perfect, adhering to Newton's or Copernicus' theory instead would be unscientific.

Goods that Mali obtained through trade: salt, horses;

The Mali Empire was the largest and most powerful African Empire. It was relatively well developed, used its numerous natural resources to get wealth, and was heavily involved in trade. Some of the natural resources of Mali were the gold, copper, and ivory, and this empire used them to get enormous amounts of wealth, as these things were highly demanded and appreciated.

The correct answer is <span>fish appeared in ponds that had been dry the previous season

This is according to the spontaneous generation idea which is opposite of the biogenesis idea which states that all living things come from other living things. The idea of spontaneous generation is mostly obsolete nowadays and no serious scientist has adopted the idea of it since the middle of the 19th century due to evidence of biogenesis. </span>
