which phrase best describes a scientist? a. a person who is highly educated b. a person who learns about the world by observing it. c. a person who understands how the world behaves. d. a person who is extremely knowledgeable about the world

B

Explanation:

None of the other responses doesn't seem right. A is to broad someone can be a scientist and might not be highly educated. C not every scientist studies this field so no. Same goes for D

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.
