Question

What was Francis Bacon known for?

A.
first describing human anatomy thoroughly and accurately







B.
proving that the earth revolves around the sun







C.
asserting that scientists should rely on experimentation and observation







D.
insisting that mathematics could be used to explain everything in nature

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer is C, asserting that scientists should rely on experimentation and observation. He didn't prove that Earth revolved around the sun, Galileo and Copernicus did that. He didn't do anything with human anatomy that I know of, and Newton used math to prove ideas.
