Explanation:

Question 7

Ethics in philosophy focuses on moral concepts like good, bad, right, and wrong. Logic deals with reasoning, science is about empirical study, so ethics is correct.

A hypothesis is a tentative explanation, and a theory is a well - supported, broader explanation that applies to more situations. Option A is wrong as theories can be in non - natural fields too, option B is wrong as hypotheses are tested. So option C is correct.

In an experiment, the independent variable is the one the scientist manipulates. Controlled variable is kept constant, observation variable is not a standard term. So independent variable is correct.

Answer:

B. ethics
