What is the process called by which scientists check each other?

The process called by which scientists check each others work is known as Peer Review.

How do scientists save lives?

First of all you cant block a natural disaster from happening all you can do is prevent damage. This is reality, and what earth scientists do. They find about events before happening. By doing this they can evacuate the people from the area and save their lives. for example if there's an earth scientist who finds out a tsunami is coming to Thailand and lets say and millions of people are on the beach, they can evacuate these people and they just saved them from getting hurt.

What are questions scientists can answer?

The broad field of art and beauty contains many elements which are not susceptible to scientific measurement. e.g. which s the most beautiful rainbow? What is the meaning of this poem? Why do we consider eyes (or hair or breasts) beautiful? There are even mathematical questions yet insoluble - the Riemann Hypothesis, which concerns the distribution of primes, is one such. Goldbach's Conjecture is another such, that may be easily understood.

When a scientist shares his or hers findings with other scientists scientists is?

A dumb scientist. The only person you should tell if you found somthing worth sharing is the news reporter!

How do scientist increase their understanding of complex natural systems?

they use certain materials and instruments that may be hard to operate.

How did scientists come up up with models?

Scientists come up with models by trying to find a mathematical description of some phenomenon, which will give predictions that can be verified experimentally.

What is food scientists?

Many food scientists work for large food processors. They work on matters like safely and flavour, and find new products, such as new frozen foods and so on.

Why do we repeat experiments?

To back up the test results of the first test. (Same as recounting)

Do scientists believe in big bang theory?

To the same extent that they believe gravity exists away from our planet, and for the same reason: scientists observe the predictions made by both ideas. Planets move around our Sun just as gravity predicts they will, and our Universe is exactly as predicted by Big Bang Cosmology.

How did scientists respond to Copernicus?

The main response to his theory came from the Catholic Church. In this time period the church taught that man was the center of the universe and his theory proved that wasn't true. The church put him on trial for questioning the dogma that they preached. Others were very careful not to have the church turn their eye on them.

Who was the ancient scientist who believed in Atoms?

This is believed to have originated with the Greek Philosopher Leucippus of Miletus and his student Democritis of Adbera in the 5th Century BC

How do scientists gather evidence to answer?

Observation, like Tycho Brahe observing the motion of the planets; Experimentation, like Galileo dropping a ball from the tower of Pisa; and interpretation like Einstein's Brownian Motion.

These are the ways evidence is gathered and all three can be wrong. Replication, others getting the same answers from repeating the first scientists work is a safeguard but not sure protection. For example the redshift is mis-interpreted to mean the Universe is expanding. The observation is correct but the interpretation is incorrect because of Group Think.

When analyzing data which the scientist look for?

When reviewing experimental data, scientists look for results that either support or disprove their theories. Additionally, they may seek patterns of results that either match previous results or that suggest another reason for the results.

One of the first scientists of the Renaissance to advance taxonomy through firsthand observations was .?

Carolus Linnaeus was the man that worked harder than any other man to advance Taxonomy

Quality and accuracy are not important to scientists.?

No. Quality and accuracy are incredibly important to scientists. If an experiment is not performed with quality and accuracy it is not valid. However, if accuracy is not especially important, possibly because the result will be the same, then it can be ignored.

What is an example of a scientist using a mathematical model to describe the weather?

The scientist has a computer calculate how far the electrons are from the nucleus.~APEX ;)
