A sample question with the answer

1. Which statement about science is the most accurate?

It is a set of guesses that never needs to be checked by anyone
It is only the work done by people in white coats inside laboratories
It is a way of testing ideas, and its answers can change
It is a fixed list of facts that never changes once it is written in a book

Answer: C) It is a way of testing ideas, and its answers can change

Science is a process. Ideas are tested, and when new evidence comes in, our understanding grows or changes.
