    • Ask questions

    • Make an experiment

    Correct Answer
    A. Ask questions
    Explanation
    The first step in the scientific method is to ask questions. This is because scientific inquiry begins with curiosity and the desire to understand and explore the natural world. By asking questions, scientists can identify problems or phenomena that they want to investigate further. This step sets the foundation for the scientific process, as it leads to the formulation of hypotheses and the design of experiments to test those hypotheses.

    Correct Answer
    A. Absolute and unchanging truth 
    Explanation
    A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that can incorporate facts, laws, inferences, and tested hypotheses. While supported by evidence and able to explain a wide range of phenomena, a scientific theory is not considered an absolute and unchanging truth. It is always open to revision and refinement as new evidence emerges and scientific understanding evolves.
