Scientists evaluate multiple explanations for the same phenomena to determine their differences, similarities, strengths, and weaknesses, and evaluating the validity of conclusions based on experimental results

Scientists evaluate multiple explanations for the same phenomena to determine their differences, similarities, strengths, and weaknesses, and evaluating the validity of conclusions based on experimental results. They evaluate the validity of conclusions based on experimental results. Students should analyze scientific investigations and data presented in passages like those found in the science section of the ACT (e.g., Data Representation, Research Summaries, and Conflicting Viewpoint passages) to evaluate scientific explanations.
