Question

The table below shows the scientists who are involved in some major scientific discoveries.

Field of science
Discovery
Scientists involved
Biology Cell theory Matthias Schleiden, Theodor Schwann
Physics Law of conservation of energy James Joule, Julius von Mayer, Hermann von Helmholtz, Baron Kelvin
Biology Mitosis Walther Flemming, Eduard Strasburger

Based on this information and what you know about the research of these scientists, which statement describes the relationship between multiple approaches and major discoveries?
Major discoveries relating to cells are more likely to occur when multiple approaches are used.
Major discoveries are only made when more than one scientist is involved in the research.
Major discoveries are more likely to occur in physics than in biology when multiple approaches are used.
Major discoveries are sometimes confirmed because multiple approaches yield the same results.?

Answer 1

Major discoveries are more likely to occur in physics than in biology when multiple approaches are used...

Step-by-step explanation:

That's because the nature of biology is highly complex in case of making principle discoveries because of it's ever changing nature in accordance with applying multiple approaches i.e., evolution etc whereas physics on the other remains same all over the universe and for eternity. So, major discoveries through different approaches are most likely to occur in Physics than in Biology...

Answer 2

The correct description is offered by the statement,
"Major discoveries are sometimes confirmed because multiple approaches yield the same results."
In science, a conclusion is strengthened when it can be proven by many, individual approaches and experiments. All of these scientists were involved in using more than one approach to arrive at the same conclusion, resulting in a strengthened final conclusion.
