Initially, scientists described atoms as the smallest particles of matter. however, smaller particles within atoms were discovered. how did the scientific world respond to this new information? by ignoring the new information because it went against a scientific law by discarding the old theory about atoms and making a new one by revising the theory that explained atoms to include this new information by designing new technology that would prove the new information was wrong

The correct answer is option by revising the theory that explained atoms to include this new information

Explanation:

Scientific theories are the explanation to any physical world phenomenon and it is considered as a theory only when there is not better explanation to any concept.  

Since in the earlier time , the structure of an atom was not evaluated and thus it was believed that the atom is the only smallest particle but now since particles smaller than atoms have been discovered, this new information can be added as a new research developed regarding the internal structure of atom to the existing theory  of atom.
