Question

Which is the most likely reason why scientists change a model?

A)The public wants to understand a concept more easily.
B)Students need illustrated models in a study guide.
C)New discoveries makes the current model inaccurate.
D)Current models may be uninteresting.

Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

C is the correct answer. When we have model A (for example) it could have 3 things from the most recent experiment. however, if another experiment is done, a new model must be made because we now do not have 3, but have 4 things that the model must show. from what we see, the said most recent model is not showing this. that is why it needs to be updated, because new discoveries makes the current model inaccurate.

Answer 2

C.) New discoveries make the current model inaccurate. Since science is all about observation and experimentation, it is logical that whenever new findings are gathered, scientific models must be modified to adapt to the information. As new ideas and concepts are uncovered, models should be updated to make them correct.
