No experiments have ever contradicted this relationship. Which type of scientific statement is this?<br>Law<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The well-accepted scientific explanation for many characteristics of Earth&#8217;s crust states that the crust is broken into several large plates. These plates move slowly over the mantle below because of convection and other processes. Earthquakes and volcanoes are most common at places where the plates interact. Evidence from physics, chemistry, and geology supports this explanation.

In 2011, a scientist analyzed 100 NASA-space-mission photographs of Valles Marineris on Mars, the longest known series of canyons in the solar system. The scientist found that Valles Marineris showed features found only in locations on Earth where major tectonic plates divide. What would be the appropriate response of scientists to this information?<br>Carry out further research to gain more understanding of possible plate tectonics on Mars<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the theory of plate tectonics, volcanoes are especially likely to form along plate boundaries because of rising magma. New satellite data mapping the ocean floor reveals thousands of seamounts, which are small volcanoes. Some of the seamounts are in lines that could correspond to past or present plate boundaries, but many are not aligned in this way. How should scientists appropriately respond to the idea that some new mechanism of forming the volcanoes is involved?<br>Carry out more research to understand better how the seamounts form<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many decades, scientists thought they understood how ozone breaks down in the stratosphere, creating ozone holes. However, new data show significantly lower reaction rates than can be explained by the long-held model.

By the eighteenth century, most scientists supported a heliocentric model that suggests that Earth revolves around the sun.
