Why do scientists generates opinions based on evidence?
the role of the opinion might be the "hypothesis" of the observation or data it can also be the thought of the scientist as said the opinion. HAVE FUN IN SCIENCE CLASS!!!
How do scientists determine whether to accept or reject their hypothesis?
Scientists determine whether to accept or reject their hypothesis by conducting experiments and collecting data to test its predictions. They analyze the results statistically to assess if the evidence supports the hypothesis or not. If the data consistently contradicts the hypothesis, it is rejected; if it aligns with the predictions, the hypothesis may be accepted or revised accordingly. Peer review and replication of results by other scientists further validate the findings.
Why scientists often test the conclusion of other scientists?
Scientists do that because they are skeptical about other scientists' work. They do not usually believe what other scientists have concluded, so other scientists come up with a hypothesis (or simply state a question) as to contradict, or theorize why another scientists' work and conclusions are wrong. In short: Scientists are skeptical and do not believe what another scientist has come up with as a conclusion.
How do scientists determine whether a hypothesis is correct?
Scientists determine whether a hypothesis is correct by performing experiments. They apply the hypothesized stimulus to one group of subjects and not to another group called the control group. If the experimental group is significantly different statistically from the control group the hypotheses is assumed correct. But, that isn't the end, if it's a significant finding other researchers try to duplicate the experiment. If they are unable to, it brings the hypothesis into question.
If the data from an experiment does not support your hypothesis can you revise it or come up with a new one?
Yes. That's the whole point of experiments. If you reckon something will happen, but it doesn't then you have to change your hypothesis. Or your experimental method. Which is why scientists self regulate by publishing claims that other scientists then try to recreate or disprove. Or even just criticise your methods.If your data doesn't support your hypothesis, but you doggedly stick to it anyway, you've created religion.
Who was the person that that made a hypothesis of continental drift?
It was Alfred Wegener but other scientists did not believe him but he found evidence
Why did the other scientists reject what is his hypothesis of supercontinent that broke apart?
Other scientists rejected Alfred Wegener's hypothesis of a supercontinent that broke apart, known as "continental drift," because Wegener did not provide a plausible mechanism for how the continents could move. Additionally, his hypothesis was seen as radical and went against the prevailing scientific beliefs of the time. It was not until the discovery of plate tectonics in the 1960s that Wegener's ideas gained more widespread acceptance.
How did other geologist's feel about Alfred wegener's hypothesis?
i am not sure
Why did other scientist not believe Alfred Wegener hypothesis?
Other scientists did not believe Alfred Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift in the early 20th century because he did not provide a plausible mechanism for how continents could move through the oceanic crust. Additionally, Wegener's evidence supporting his idea was largely based on geological and fossil similarities between continents, which were not considered strong enough to support such a revolutionary idea at the time. It wasn't until the mid-20th century, with the development of the theory of plate tectonics, that Wegener's hypothesis gained widespread acceptance.
Is a scientific hypothesis a accepted if there is no way to demonstrate that the hypothesis is wrong?
If you develop an experiment that truly demonstrates that the hypothesis is wrong*, then the hypothesis will lose its acceptance in the scientific community.* Such an experiment would have to be repeatable by other scientists AND accepted by interested scientists as a proof that the hypothesis is wrong.
What do scientists call a possible answer to the original answer?
In mathematics: conjecture. In other science: hypothesis.
Which of the following discoveries caused science to re-evaluate its opinion of Alfred Wegener's hypothesis about continental drift?
The discovery of seafloor spreading and the mapping of plate tectonics boundaries in the mid-20th century caused scientists to re-evaluate and eventually accept Alfred Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift, leading to the development of the theory of plate tectonics. These discoveries provided a mechanism for how continents could move and interact with each other.

Who thought of plate tectonics theory?
The theory of plate tectonics was developed through the contributions of several scientists, including Alfred Wegener, who proposed the theory of continental drift in the early 20th century. Later research by Harry Hess and Robert Dietz provided evidence for seafloor spreading, leading to the development of the modern plate tectonics theory in the 1960s.
What was NOT used by Wegener to support his hypothesis of continental drift?
The ratio of the price of tea in China to the average density of the Moon. Among other things. You might want to be more specific in questions like this.
