Explanation / Answer

Question 1a-

Correct answer is “Hypotheses lead to scientific theories” (2nd option). It is because first a scientist needs a hypothesis. He presumes something for a result and then work on his hypothesis for making a theory. If hypothesis fails, then there is no theory.

Question 1b-

The 3rd option (educted guess) is correct. Hypothesis is a guess under the boundaries of science. Therefore, we do experiment to test a scientific guess.

Question 1c-

The first option (Serendipitous) is correct answer. Penicillin discovery was a happy accidental discovery.

Question 1d-

The 3rd option is correct. Science is wholly based on logics and fundamentals. If we understand logics, then we would get understand science too.
