What provides evidence that geologic activity occurred in the past on Earth's Moon?
the presence of solidified lava flows on the Moon
Why is a possible explanation for a set of observations called a hypothesis?
A hypothesis is your first guess at how something/ your experiment is going to turn out. If the results you get match your hypothesis you can declare that it provides evidence to suggest that your hypothesis is true.
Which of the following provides evidence that geologic activity occurred in the past on Earth's Moon?
the presence of the solidified lava flows on the moon
What process provides the best evidence that Earth has evolved over geologic time?
rock containing fossilized seashells found on a mountaintop
What provides geologist with evidence of earths past including geologic events and life forms?
The rocks of Earth's crust, especially sedimentary rocks
What makes a hypothesis become a theory?
A hypothesis is used to make predictions. Experiments are carried out to test these predictions. If the outcome of the experiment was not as predicted then the hypothesis is falsified. It is either rejected or modified. If the outcome of the experiment confirms the prediction then that provides some evidence that the hypothesis is true.Over time, after testing different predictions, there will be a significant amount of evidence in favour of the hypothesis, and all the main alternatives have been rejected. At that stage the hypothesis becomes a theory.
A Foucault pendulum provides evidence of Earth's?
it provides evidence of the EARTH's rotation.
What study provides additional information about geologic features beneath the Earth's surface?
Subsurface geology
Why the scientific method be used to answer a question?
It provides a way to test a hypothesis.
What does statistical evidence mean?
Statistical evidence refers to data or information that has been gathered or analyzed using statistical methods. This evidence provides support for or against a particular hypothesis, theory, or claim through the use of statistical measures and tests to assess the likelihood of the observed results occurring by chance.
What information does the geologic time scale provided and what are the major divisions of time?
The information the geologic scale provides is animals and fossils over time and periods. Major divisions of time is called eras.
What is the cause and effect of hypothesis?
The cause of a hypothesis is a research question or problem that needs to be addressed. The effect of a hypothesis is that it provides a proposed explanation or prediction that can be tested through research and experimentation. This testing helps to determine the validity and reliability of the hypothesis.
