(picture is a pic of cute colorful birds c: ) Suppose that you and a friend see brightly colored pigeons like these at a nature

park. Because pigeons are usually gray and white, you both wonder where these colors came from. Suddenly, your friend says, "I have a theory. These birds must get their colors from eating food that has the same colors."
Is your friend's explanation a scientific theory? Give reasons to explain your answer.

Answer:

It is most definitely not a scientific theory. When you eat, say, blueberries for example, do you turn blue? No. It has to do with their genetic makeup, so their parents must have been fun colors.

Answer:

Well yes it is a scientific theory because he examined the birds and gave a hypothesis on why the birds are different colors, before we knew how birds really got their colors, this could actually have been a very good theory. Birds get their colors just because of genetics, we wouldn't know this unless someone made a theory, tested it, and reported it's accuracy.

Answer:

An alcohol thermometer can measure the freezing point of a liquid that freezes at −80 °C.

Explanation:

A thermometer is a device used to measure temperature. A thermometer must contain a thermometric substance. A thermometric substance is any substance having a particular physical property that changes with temperature.

For all liquid-in-glass thermometers, the property that changes with change in temperature is the height of the liquid. There are two kinds of liquid-in-glass thermometers; mercury-in-glass thermometer and alcohol-in-glass thermometer.

Alcohol-in-glass thermometer measures very low temperatures up to as low as -115°C. If it measures such a low temperature, then it can efficiently measure -80°C hence the answer.

Alcohol-in-glass thermometers have a narrower temperature range than mercury-in-glass thermometer. The later is well adapter for the measurement bof higher tempetures up to 357°C.

The shadow zone exists because ?
lana66690 [7]
At almost the opposite point on the Earth's surface, the "P" waves reappear. The shadow zone exists because the waves are refracted as they pass through the boundary between the mantle and the core and are diverted from their original paths.

Why do different isotopes of an element generally have the same physical and chemical properties?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is because they have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

Explanation:

Isotopes are atoms of the same element but differ only in the number of neutrons in the nucleus, i.e. they have same atomic number but different mass number.

Mass number is affected as they have different number of neutrons, thus effecting their physical properties.

The number of electrons and protons are same, i.e. their atomic number is same and thus their chemical properties are same as chemical properties are determined by the atom’s electronic configuration and that relates to number of protons.
