Answer:

B. It allows scientists to predict things about objects that are too small to see.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

In science, we're always looking for the study of tinier things as long as we're interested about what the matter is made of. Several atomic models such as Bohr's, Rutherford's, Dalton's and the actual one have been proposed in order for us to understand how the protons, neutrons and electrons are assembled into the atom because they are too small to see (about 0.5 fm) thus, with that better understanding, we can research and develop novel applications for new materials based on the micromolecular behavior of the atom.

Best regards.
