Which statements about the limitations of models in science are accurate? Check all that apply.Models cannot be used to represent complex objects or systems.Models may be oversimplified.Models cannot represent all aspects of an object or a system.Models are only as accurate as current scientific knowledge.Models cannot be revised when new discoveries are made.
Answer
A
Models cannot be used to represent complex objects or systems.
B
Models may be oversimplified.
C
Models cannot represent all aspects of an object or a system.
D
Models are only as accurate as current scientific knowledge.
E
Models cannot be revised when new discoveries are made.
Explanation
Models simplify real objects and systems, so they may be oversimplified and cannot show every aspect of what they represent. Their accuracy is also limited by the scientific knowledge available when they are made. Models can represent complex systems and can be revised when new discoveries are made, so A and E are inaccurate.
