Which of the following could be considered a scientific statement? There are two correct answers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"Soda A tastes better than Soda B.” "You should not get rays because of the high frequency.” "White light is composed of many colors of light.” "Nuclear energy is bad because of potential radiation damage.”

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'd go with white light for starters, it's the only factual statement. Soda statement is subjective. Rays statement makes no sense unless you've made a typo. Nuclear energy statement, while true, is also subjective.

it says there's two answers. I also chose C and couldn't get a second. :-/

Where does this question come from?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A practice test so you know what to expect on the exam.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A scientific statement is a statement that satisfies ALL SIX criteria on the CONPTT grid....Consistent,Observable, Natural, Predictable, Testable, Tentative (from wiki answers) Lets go over the options testing these criteria.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

With this in mind I would say your second answer is the nuclear option.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So B&C is what I should choose?
