A scientist spends a month observing two prairie animals, prairie dogs and ferrets, in their natural habitat. Base on his observations, the scientist states that ferrets are more active than prairie dogs. Why is his statement NOT a scientific theory

c

Explanation:

a. It is an observation of something in nature.

b. Prairie dogs and ferrets are different species.

c. The statement is not widely accepted and supported by sufficient evidence.

d. The scientist has not conducted enough trials to draw a valid conclusion.

The statement of the scientist is not a scientific theory because it is not widely accepted and supported by sufficient evidence.

In order for a statement to become a theory, there must be adequate scientific evidence to support it and several independent researchers must have found the statement to be true through the same independent experimental procedure. In the case of the scientist in the illustration, this is not so. Hence, the scientist's statement cannot be considered a theory.

The correct option would be c.

i think the answer is b.

what do the different brain waves do?

explanation:

brainwaves are produced by synchronised electrical pulses from masses of neurons communicating with each other. brainwaves are detected using sensors placed on the scalp. brainwave speed is measured in hertz (cycles per second) and they are divided into bands delineating slow, moderate, and fast waves.
