Explanation:

Before answering the questions, it is important to define these given terms:

a) There are 2 countries in North America: Belief

The idea that there are just two countries in North America is wrong. A person might choose to hold on to this false knowledge despite strong evidence that can annul this system of reasoning. He or she might be coming from the point view that in terms of economic prowess, there are just two countries in North America. This is more of a belief.

b) If I jump out a window I will die: belief.

This is more of a belief, there is nothing to prove that if one jumps out of a window, death is inevitable.

c) Through the process of natural selection humans, chimpanzees and

gorillas evolved from a common ancestor species.: Theory

This is a theory that seeks to provide a scientific basis to evolution. To come to this conclusion, observations have been made on humans, chimpanzees and gorillas.

d) Energy can be converted into matter in ratio of E=mc² : Law

This is a scientific law which has been simplified in form of mathematical expression to show the relationship between mass energy.

e) Canada is the greatest country on earth: Belief

This is a mere belief. Almost every Canadian can attest to this assertion. It is a thing of national pride and loyal for one to belief their country is the greatest.

f) Illness comes from microscopic germs, some of which, bacteria can be

seen under the microscope and cultivated outside a host, and others,

viruses, are too small to see under the microscope: Fact

It is a proven fact that germs causes diseases.
