Why is forming a hypothesis an important step in the scientific method? Choose the best answer. Stating a hypothesis before conducting experiments ensures that the method will follow an inductive process of reasoning. By stating a formal hypothesis, a scientist can adequately design the best control conditions for designing experiments intended to falsify the hypothesis. When a formal hypothesis is tested once, it will be accepted as theory no matter what the results of subsequent experiments suggest.
Why is there a need for a scientist to know the limitations of science? Does this not affect their credibility as scientist? *
The scientific method is a set of techniques for gaining new knowledge about the world in which we live. However, these techniques come with a rigid set of rules that are sometimes misinterpreted. Identify the statements that accurately describe science and the scientific method. Scientific hypotheses are educated guesses that can be disproven by experiments. Science is a process that is limited to answering questions about the natural world. Science is a process that is not limited by the types of questions it can answer. Scientific findings can always be relied upon as fact. Scientific findings are based on carefully tested and scrutinized observations. Scientific theories are concrete and indisputable explanations for natural phenomena.
