Compare and contrast
I have this biology test tomorrow and one question I dont know how to answer is”Compare and contrast an Opinion , hypothesis ,theory and law “ , can someone give me an answer
well you should probably do that on your own. cause I had to do that on my own and I couldn’t justify it to myself if I let someone escape the suffering I had to endure. in other words… its a test, hun, doityourowngoddamnself. the word of god. amen… (straight from the bible)
I can tell you that in science that is the order for rigorous proof, with a scientific THEORY being the most solid; having a HUGE amount of evidence and testing (including predictions that were found to be true) that shows the scientific THEORY is true. (As opposed to the word “Theory” in casual conversation that most closely means ‘a guess’).
opinion - no evidence of any sort to support it eg. “Blueberries suck a$$”
hypothesis - a guess made to describe an observation or phenomenon of some sort eg. “Blueberries taste sour…probably due to their acidity”
theory - a highly supported (lots of evidence and proof) model that predicts a phenomenon – can be rejected eg. “Based on statistical and experimental evidence…on the average, a blueberry has 15% acidic content…thus making it sour”
law - an idea/rule/model that is accepted to be true by everyone (comes after a theory is proposed and that theory accurately predicts what it is supposed to for all possible instances) eg. “Blueberries are sour.”
hope it makes sense…maybe blueberries wuzn’t such a great example :S
