What is a study called that is supported by some evidence but is not yet the basis for a field of?
working theory
Which of the three types of plate movement provided some evidence and supported Wegener's theory?
Convergence ,divergence and shear movement
What happens when new evidence does not support your theory?
Depends on whether all the theory is being contradicted or only a part of theory faces contradiction. For instance; the theory of evolution by natural selection would take a theory shaking hit if we found fossil rabbits in the Cambrian period, which has not happened. Only part of the theory of evolution by natural selection was contradicted by Mendelian genetics, when Mendel's much better heritability mechanism replaced Darwin's idea about blending inheritance. The theory only got stronger by this ratification.If that new evidence is solid enough, it may require a revision of the theory. If it is just shaky and occurs because of some error in the experiment, it is usually discarded as uncredible.

.can't explain the origin of the cloud .how would cloud stick together? .some planets and moons spin backwards
Which of the following provided evidence at first for the hypothesis of continental drift and layer for the theory of plate tectonics?

What is some evidence that supports Nicolaus Steno theory?
bull
Is a hypothesis is more certain than a theory in science?
No. A theory is more certain: it is a hypothesis which has had some supporting evidence.
What is scientific evidence appeal?
Scientific evidence appeal is some form of proof which supports or counters a scientific theory. This is the information that will be used as empirical evidence of a hypothesis.
A general set of principles supported by evidence that explains some aspect of nature?
A theory
What is supported by some evidence but is not yet the basis for a field of study is called a?
working theory
What is a study called that is supported by some evidence but is not yet the basis for a field of?
working theory
What is the definition of Scientific Evidence Appeal?
Scientific evidence is facts or evidence that is used to prove or disprove a scientific theory. Scientific evidence appeal is when new finding or statistics are brought to light that disprove some or all of the previous evidence's findings.
Do you think it's wise for scientists not to accept a theory immediately even if the theory has a lot of evidence to support it?
Each scientists have there own opinion. Some accept theories and some have to have facts.
Is a theory is something that you can prove to be?
A theory(in science) is something that that has been confirmed by a great ammount of evidence. Theorys explain the facts. (Hypothosis is an idea based on the observed evidence. Theory is a tested, confirmed hypothosis) Fact: the sun is bright and hot theory: nuclear fusion im sure some one can asnwer this much better that I did. But you asked if a theory is something "that you can prove to be"? not as an absolute fact, that's only in mathematics. But based on all known evidence it is what is most likely to be true. evidence has to do with the natural world. Proof is a different thing.
An idea that is supported by some evidence but is not yet the basis for a field of study is called?
What branch of earth science studies the great lakers?
What is a scientific theory that has been changed due to new evidence?
When new evidence is found, the theory is tested against the new evidence, if the theory and new evidence are compatible then the theory is confirmed, if the new evidence and the theory are not compatible, then this indicates the theory is wrong and the theory must be abandoned or modified. Sometimes a theory will predict that new things (evidence) will be discovered. In such cases when these things are discovered AS PREDICTED, the theory becomes stronger. For instance some of the outer planets were predicted (using orbital and gravitational theory and observation on the orbits of known planets) and they were later discovered close to where they were predicted to be.
