Scientists had made observations that did not fit exactly with Dalton's theory. Scientists changed the atomic theory to include this new knowledge. While the modern atomic theory is based on Dalton's theory, it is also very different.

What piece of evidence would cause scientists to decide that cell theory would need to be revised?

If scientists were to discover a new type of organism that does not fit the characteristics of cells as defined by cell theory, such as lacking a cell membrane or having a fundamentally different structure, then they may consider revising the cell theory to account for this new finding.


What do scientists do during an investigation?

If I recall the Scientific Method, scientists first develop a theory, then conduct tests to determine the validity of their theory, examine the test results, and often need to readjust elements of their theory, and start over conducting more tests and, if they have proof that their theory is true, then they need to have it duplicated by another independent scientific lab before they can publish their findings. (This is a very brief overview!)


Why are scientists more reluctant to accept Charles Darwin's theory?

Scientists were having the same problem that Darwin thought would happen. In Darwin's mind his theory took away the need for a God. Darwin's theory of evolution challenged both the Religious and the science community. Some scientists still have the same shallow mind that other scientists had during Darwin's time.


Why do you need scientists?

you need scientist because without them how would we have rockets or any technology


Why do scientific claims need to be repeated by other scientists?

Lets put it this way, scientists are basically skeptics. This means that they question the validity of most things. So one scientist will propose a theory to explain something and others will begin to perform experiments to prove/disprove that theory. As long as nobody can disprove a theory then it will be generally accepted. This has limitations...any theory can be proposed but it has to be reasonable as well. Usually the simplest theory is given the highest credibility.


How did scientists before the scientists revolution do their work?

Before the scientific revolution scientists would do mostly observations. These observations are what lead to the rise of patterns and the need for the scientific revolution.


What do scientists who study how plants grow in space use?

you would need a spacecraft


If after extensive research the expected observations predicted by a theory fail to materialize then the theory .?

may need to be revised or even discarded altogether. It is important for scientific theories to be tested against empirical evidence, and if the evidence does not support the predictions of the theory, it calls into question the validity of the theory itself. Scientists may need to go back to the drawing board to develop a new theory that better explains the observations.


Which scientists helped develop this theory?

Before an answer can be given, you need to supply what theory you are talking about. Basic rule of asking a question: always assume the reader can't read your mind or guess what you are asking. The more info you supply, the better the answer will be.


What might a scientists need to repeat a step in scientific methods?

He would need all the equipment he had when he did the step the first time


Why would a scientists need to identify and control variables in an experiment?

A scientist would need to identify variables so you could know what to change and what to keep the same. A scientist would need to control variables so you can try to see exactly which factors are affecting the dependent variable (the thing you're measuring). Hope this helped! Because I have the exact same question on my homework!
