Answer to Question 1

The scientific method starts with a question, or a desire to understand something that has been observed or measured. A working hypothesis is formed to tentatively explain the observation. The hypothesis is tested with controlled experiments and further observations to be either verified or disproved. A hypothesis that is consistently supported by observation or experiment is advanced to the status of theory, a statement that explains the observations. Theories can evolve into larger constructs, known as laws, which summarize the observations.

Answer to Question 2

False
