- New scientific knowledge is gained through a multistep process known as:a. the scientific methodb. hypothesis developmentc. variable testingd. observation testingarrow_forwardThe 'control group' is an essential component of an experiment. This is because 1. A control group allows one to determine if a particular result is due to the experimental variable. 2. No, it's not essential in experimentation. A control group is not always necessary it depends on the experiment. 3. A control group allows for multiple variables to be tested at the same time. 4. A control group is required for the development of a prediction.arrow_forwardWhy is there a need for a scientist to know the limitations of science?
