1. It is the means by which we acquire basic knowledge of the world around us.

Explanation:

Locke attempted a thesis of Descartes and Bacon. He could not give a nod to Descarte's rationalism and urged for absolute legitimacy of knowledge and appreciates Bacon's empiricism to increase knowledge of the world and substantiates the point with his own psychological description about the origin of ideas. He elaborates that ideas are acquired, learned and obtained. Locke negated the concept of innate ideas. He describes that ideas of morality, logical principles can only be developed eventually. Thus, he focuses on the point that the knowledge or ideas are acquired and learned from the worldly experience.
