Question

q8. (s c.6.n.2.2) which situation best shows how new evidence can change a theory? a law is rewritten to explain a new idea telescopes provided data that supported the heliocentric model instead of the geocentric model a student decides to ignore a science lesson teachers update textbooks every year

Explanation:

The heliocentric - geocentric example shows how new evidence (telescope data) changed the existing theory (geocentric model to heliocentric model). A law is different from a theory. Ignoring a science lesson is unrelated. Textbook updates may not always be due to new evidence changing a theory.

Answer:

B. Telescopes provided data that supported the heliocentric model instead of the geocentric model
