Far denser -- almost infinitely more dense -- than it is today.
It is a mistake to say that the BB claims that our entire Universe was once the size of a proton. That statement only applies to what is now the VISIBLE universe -- that small sub-set of our Universe that we can now see. While this 93 billion light year diameter ball is pretty large, it is impossible to determine how much more of our Universe is out there, beyond our present ability to see -- the total amount could be infinite. Thus, instead of saying our entire Universe was much SMALLER than it is today, it is more correct to say it was much DENSER.

According to the big bang theory the universe was once a very?
tiny particle, which then exploded forming the universe
Is the kinetic theory of matter the same as the particle theory of matter and what are they?
No they are not the same. The kinetic theory of matter is a mathematical mechanism for thermodynamics which studies a collection of particles at once. For instance in an inert gas like Argon or N3, the kinetic theory of matter leads us to the ideal gas law PV=nRT. This theory deals with a chunk of matter at a time, assuming it to be both continuous and discrete. On the other hand, the particle theory of matter is one of the backbones to the kinetic theory. It was described by Neils Bohr to describe the vast emptiness of space in a sheet of metal. The particle theory of matter is the idea that matter consists of small particles we know as atoms but that those atoms consist of smaller particles called electrons, protons and neutrons. This theory is the study of how individual particles come together to form chunks of matter.
How did the Big Bang occur?
Scientist theorize that the universe started out as an infinitly dense ball of energy that somehow exploded into what the universe is today. My theory is that the universe was some sort of giant atom that was somehow split by a wayward electrical charge within the quantum sigularity.
What theories about the creation of the universe have been accepted in the past?
Until the second half of the twentieth century, the Steady State Theory predominated. This holds that the universe has always existed, very much as it does now. Stars may grow old and cold, but new stars are formed out of the abundant interstellar matter. So, the universe will continue to exist as it does now, for many billions of years. While the Steady State Theory may still have some adherents, the predominant theory among scientists is called the Big Bang Theory. This holds that, about 13.7 billion years ago, an infinitessimally small point exploded to produce the entire universe. Once again, stars may grow old and cold, and new stars form out of the abundant interstellar matter, but the difficulty of infinite existence does not apply. There are at least two, somewhat compatible, hypotheses as to what formed the infinitessimally small point and triggered the Big Bang. Some scientists believe that the process that triggered the Big Bang could have occurred more than once. If so, there could be many universes, in what has been termed a multiverse. However, we will probably never become physically aware of any of the other universes.
What does it mean when someone says the universe is expanding?
Two answers from me. 1. There is more room for possibilities. 2. The big bang theory and how it all went from one little speck to the universe. The discovery channel actually had a show on this once.

How does the big bounce theory differ from the big bang theory?
in big bang theory the particles will just move away outside. while in big bounce, a stage will come when all the particles once again will form singularity as the result of big crunch. that's what i think.

Theory of industry?
The theory of industry tries to explain the various principles which are used in formation of industrial organizations. The theory states that once an industry is stable to compete, tariffs and other measures can be introduced.
Does the sun move around the earth once every year?
No, the heliocentric theory states that the Earth revolves around the Sun once each year.
Which creation theory claims that God created things in stages over an extended period?
This creation theory is known as Creationism. The theory states that God created the world in stages instead of all at once.
What are the main demerits of Big Bang Theory?
The most significant problem with Big Bang Cosmology is that it has its limits. It makes no attempt to explain what occurred prior to the start of expansion, or what drove the expansion to start -- and has never claimed to do so. That our Universe has, over the last 13 billion years or so, has been expanding at a (fairly) constant rate, and that it was once almost infinitely more dense that it is today, is as incontrovertible a fact as interplanetary gravity. But the state of our Universe prior to that is, like the question of why we have lightning in the sky, presently unknown. Big Bang Cosmology (presently) also fails to explain why our Universe is so overwhelmingly matter, with almost no anti-matter in it.
Are chipmunks abandoned at birth?
Yes, once the young ones are old enough to fend for themselves.
What are Pangaea maps?
What is the pangaea theory? The Pangaea theory is one that states that all present continents were once together and collectively known as a 'supercontinent' called a Pangaea. i think they are not same question,.

What is the psychological theory that states that a child shapes his or her development?
The theory you are referring to is likely Erikson's theory of psychosocial development, which posits that individuals go through eight stages of development, with each stage presenting a crisis or conflict that must be resolved. Erikson believed that successful resolution of these conflicts shapes a person's psychological and emotional growth.
