Question

drag the tiles to the correct boxes to form correct pairs. not all tiles will be used. match each example given to the type of scientific concept. observation hypothesis law theory the outer layer of the earth is divided into plates that move due to convection currents under the surface. if the amount of daylight increases plant growth, then plants will have higher rates of growth during the summer. for every action or force in nature, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Explanation:

1. "The outer - layer of the Earth is divided into plates that move due to convection currents under the surface." is a well - established idea in Earth science, which is a theory.
2. "If the amount of daylight increases plant growth, then plants will have higher rates of growth during the summer." is a proposed explanation that can be tested, so it is a hypothesis.
3. "For every action or force in nature, there is an equal and opposite reaction." is a fundamental and unchanging statement in physics, which is a law.

Answer:

1. The outer layer of the Earth is divided into plates that move due to convection currents under the surface. -> theory
2. If the amount of daylight increases plant growth, then plants will have higher rates of growth during the summer. -> hypothesis
3. For every action or force in nature, there is an equal and opposite reaction. -> law
