What is the word for not being able to explain a theory?
The word for not being able to explain a theory is "incomprehensible."
What are the differences between hypothesis and theory?
A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon that can be tested through experimentation or observation, whereas a theory is a well-substantiated explanation based on evidence from multiple studies. The main difference is that a theory has been repeatedly tested and confirmed, while a hypothesis is still being investigated.
What are the four criteria's used to evaluate theory?
Empirical validity: the extent to which the theory is supported by evidence from research and observation. Logical consistency: the theory should be internally coherent and free of contradictions. Parsimony: the theory should be simple and economical, with the fewest assumptions. Scope: the theory should be able to explain and predict a wide range of phenomena within its domain.
Who tested the cell theory?
Robert Hooke was the first to coin the cell theory. It was coined shortly after the invention of the microscope.
Compare and contrast a theory and hypotheses?
A theory is a well-supported explanation for a phenomenon based on evidence and repeated testing. It is a broader concept that integrates various hypotheses into a coherent framework. In contrast, a hypothesis is a specific testable prediction or idea that is proposed to explain a particular phenomenon and can be tested through experimentation or observation.
What is a set of tested hypotheses that attempts to explain why something happens?
The name in science is theory.
How is the validity of theory tested?
The validity of a theory is tested through empirical research and experimentation. This involves collecting data that either supports or refutes the predictions or hypotheses derived from the theory. The results of these tests are then used to evaluate the accuracy and explanatory power of the theory.
What is a well tested explanation of observations?
A theory
Is a theory tested?
Yes
Is a theory and a law the same thing?
No, a theory is an idea someone has to explain something. The veracity of a theory needs testing. A law is an explanation for something, where the veracity of the explanation has been widely tested and as a result of this testing the explanation has not yet been disproved.
What is one characteristic of a scientific theory?
There are many criteria for a scientific theory, it would kill me to list just one, so I'm goint to let you pick from the list. It should be testable. It should be able to be falsified. It's predictions must conform to the observations It should have been repeatedly tested
Was quantum theory tested?
Quantum theory has been tested and theoretical and experimental values have been found to agree to more digits of precision than in any other theory tested against reality!
Is a theory part of the scientific method?
Yes, a theory is what is then tested.
How do you explain Classical Conditioning Theory?
Explain Classical Conditioning Theory?
How do you explain the theory of use and disuse?
Explain the theory of use and disuse
Is a theory an predication that can be tested?
no it is a hypothesis
