They think that life might exist on Europa because they have found evidence of liquid water on Europa. Hope this helps. :) <3

∙ 6y agoThe movement of Europa's icy crust indicates that there is liquid water beneath its icy crust. Water is the first thing scientists look for in trying to find places that may hold life.

Does evidence support both punctuated equilibrium and gradualism?
Evidence supports a model in which periods of relative stability are punctuated by short periods of rapid (relatively speaking) change. It could, theoretically, be possible for evolution to proceed in a gradual manner. However, mathematical modelling and fossil evidence show that punctuated equilibrium is the norm.
Can good scientific analysis can overcome poorly collected evidence?
In certain cases in could but in a general term no it cannot, poorly collected evidence could contaminate it or even if obtained wrong could be thrown out and not be used as evidence that is why there are procedures to be followed.
What are individual characteristics in forensic science?
it is evidence that could be associated, an example is is comparison of hand writing
Could a scientific knowledge be changed or modified?
yes because theories are always changed when found new evidence

What evidence supports the idea that life could have evolved on europa?
Evidence to support the idea that life could have evolved on Europa includes the presence of a subsurface ocean with conditions potentially suitable for life, such as the presence of water, organic molecules, and a source of energy from hydrothermal vents. Additionally, observations of plumes of water vapor and evidence of past geological activity suggest that Europa could have the necessary ingredients for life to have evolved.
Which feature of the US Constitution could best be used as evidence that the Constitution supports capitalism?
the elastic clause
What could prove that humans evolved from Neanderthals?
I doubt that any evidence, experiment, or research could prove that humans evolved from Neanderthals. Neanderthals and humans both evolved from Heidelberg Men (Homo heidelbergensis). Genetic evidence, cloning, and geometric reconstruction can effectively establish that humans (Homo sapiens) and Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) evolved from Homo heidelbergensis, but it is difficult to irrevocably prove something like that, as it cannot be, as far as we know, recreated in a laboratory.
Is life sustainable on any of Jupiter's moons?
Potentially. Evidence suggests that there is liquid water inside Europa, which opens the possibility that it could hold some sort of life.
Is there water on any other moon in the solar system except The Moon?
None that we are certain of, but it is highly probable that Jupiter's moon Europa has oceans of liquid water protected by thick layers of ice. It is even remotely possible that life could have evolved in Europa's oceans! In fact, that was the premise of Arthur C. Clarke's novel "2010"; that the "star child" David Bowman, having been forcibly evolved by the aliens of the novel "2001; A Space Odyssey", is sent back to Jupiter to convert it into a miniature sun and to protect the life forms of Europa.
Could Europa have life?
Possibly. Europa has an ocean of liquid water under its icy crust, which might have light.
Why is Europa interesting to the scientists?
There is an ocean on Europa which contains liquid water. Other than the Earth, Europa is the only place in the solar system where we have found liquid water. Life as we know it is very dependent upon liquid water, and life is believed to have originally evolved in the water, before moving to the land.
Why could europa harbor life?
'cause it has an atmosphere
Where is there a moon that could possibly support life?
Europa
Which of jupiters moon can support life?
At the moment, none. In the future, when we some some evidence, I'm sure this answer will be updated. 2nd Answer: Although we do not know if there is life on the moon Europa, most scientists agree that life could arise and exist deep in Europa's ocean near thermal (heat) vents in the ocean's floor.
What do astronomers think there could be life on euopa?
Astronomers have found evidence that leads them to think that there is a saline ocean under the H2O ice that dominates the surface of Europa. A saline environment would be amenable to life.
Do astronomers thinks there could be on europa?
They believe there is liquid water underneath its frozen surface. If there is liquid water on Europa, there might also be life.
