- Q13What is empirical evidence in science?It is a prediction made without observations.It is the cumulative body of observations of a natural phenomenon.It is a story about a scientific discovery.It is a personal opinion about a scientific theory.30sSC.7.N.1.6
- Q14Which of the following is a benefit of using scientific models?They provide exact answers to scientific questions.They help us understand complex systems by simplifying them.They eliminate the need for experiments.They replace scientific theories.30sSC.7.N.3.2
- Q15What is one limitation of using scientific models?They provide direct experimental data.They are only useful for theoretical purposes.They may oversimplify complex systems.They always require the use of advanced technology.30sSC.7.N.3.2
