No, because some scientists work outdoors....but on the other hand they might. This is because some scientists have to take indoors what they find and examine it under laboratory type tools.
Geophysicists, Seismologists, Geomorphologists and Palaeontologists are some examples of scientists who's work involves or is affected by the theory of plate tectonics.
how might a fossil affect the work of scientists
Scientists work together because, if one scientist get an answer wrong the other scientists might get it right and this is the same with experiments
yes
Scientists do that because they are skeptical about other scientists' work. They do not usually believe what other scientists have concluded, so other scientists come up with a hypothesis (or simply state a question) as to contradict, or theorize why another scientists' work and conclusions are wrong. In short: Scientists are skeptical and do not believe what another scientist has come up with as a conclusion.
based on observation of what is wrong with the work of other scientists
