Question

Accepted Answer

### Question 7
# Brief Explanations:
Ethics is the branch of philosophy concerned with moral concepts like good, bad, right, and wrong. Logic deals with reasoning, and science is about systematic knowledge of the natural world. So the correct option is B.
# Answer: B. ethics

### Question 8
# Brief Explanations:
A hypothesis is a tentative explanation, while a theory is a well - supported, broader explanation that applies to many situations. Option A is wrong as both theory (in natural science) and hypothesis (for natural world questions) deal with the natural world. Option B is wrong as both are tested (hypothesis is tested to become theory). So option C is correct.
# Answer: C. A theory is broader than a hypothesis, dealing with a wider range of situations and observations.

### Question 9
# Brief Explanations:
The independent variable is the one the scientist manipulates in an experiment. The controlled variable is kept constant, and there is no “observation variable” in this context. So the correct option is C.
# Answer: C. independent variable.

### Question 10 (Modified True/False)
# Brief Explanations:
The study of how the natural world works, how our environment affects us, and how we affect our environment is “environmental science”, not “environmentalism” (environmentalism is a social movement). So the statement is false, and we change “Environmentalism” to “Environmental science”.
# Answer: False. Change "Environmentalism" to "Environmental science".

### Question 11 (Modified True/False)
# Brief Explanations:
The start of planting crops and domesticating animals was the Agricultural Revolution, about 10,000 years ago, not the Industrial Revolution (Industrial Revolution was about machinery). So the statement is false, and we change “Industrial Revolution” to “Agricultural Revolution”.
# Answer: False. Change "Industrial Revolution" to "Agricultural Revolution".

### Question 12 (Modified True/False)
# Brief Explanations:
Dependent variables depend on experimental conditions (specifically the independent variable), while independent variables are manipulated. So the statement is false, and we change “Independent variables” to “Dependent variables”.
# Answer: False. Change "Independent variables" to "Dependent variables".

### Question 13 (Modified True/False)
# Brief Explanations:
The process where the scientific community examines a paper before publication is indeed peer review. So the statement is true.
# Answer: True

### Question 14 (Modified True/False)
# Brief Explanations:
Anthropocentrism is a worldview that places human value at the center, while a worldview where all components of an ecosystem have value is ecocentrism. So the statement is false, and we change “Anthropocentrism” to “Ecocentrism”.
# Answer: False. Change "Anthropocentrism" to "Ecocentrism".
