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 theories are concrete and indisputable explanations for natural phenomena. Science is a process that is limited to answering questions about the natural world. Scientific findings are based on carefully tested and scrutinized observations. Scientific theories can be made obsolete by new experiments or observations. Scientific findings can always be relied upon as fact. Science is a process that is not limited by the types of questions it can answer.

    Answer: scientific finding are based on carefully tested and scrutinized observation.

    Explanation: All the statement tends to describe science, but the ones that describes it most is that scientific findings are based on carefully tested and scrutinized observation. Which means that before a scientist publish a finding, they must have been an observation of that finding, which lead him to come up with a hypothesis, then he goes into an experiment on that finding, after several carful experiment he will come up to a conclusion, that can be published as a finding, which is called a theory. If the theory had been proved in several phenomenon it became a natural law. That means before the first method used by scientist are observation, which will be carefully scrutinized and tested before it is published as a theory, then as a law.

    Why other statement did not describe science the most are as follows.

    • Science theories are concrete but not indisputable, because theories can always be amended by future scientist, using a higher technical apparatus in the same experiment.

    • Science is not a process limited to only answering questions of the natural world, because science also answers questions of things to happen, which we can't see in the natural world.

    • Scientific theories can never be made obsolete by new experiments or observation, but can only be amended by new theories.

    • scientific finding are not always relied upon fact, but upon proven experiments.

    • Science is limited by the type of question it can answer, because science can not answer some accounting question and many others.
