question 1 - 4
throughout history, scientific knowledge has changed. which of the following would result in an important change in scientific knowledge?
a science textbook is updated with colorful images.
a student writes a report using information from a website.
a scientist repeats an old experiment and gets the same results.
a new scientific tool allows scientists to collect more accurate data.

Explanation:

Updated images in a textbook don't change scientific knowledge. A student's report using web - sourced info doesn't necessarily change knowledge either. Repeating an old experiment with the same results doesn't bring new knowledge. However, a new scientific tool that allows for more accurate data collection can lead to new discoveries and thus change scientific knowledge.

Answer:

A new scientific tool allows scientists to collect more accurate data.
