Scientific Revolution Review

How does Leeuwenhoek use the microscope to advance our knowledge of medicine?

• Leeuwenhoek uses the telescope to observe life outside of Earth

• Leeuwenhoek creates the naming system for modern diseases

• Leeuwenhoek uses the microscope to study bacteria and diseases

• Leeuwenhoek does not help with the advancement of medical knowledge

Using Galileo as an example, what can be implied about how the Scientific Revolution changes thinking?

• The Scientific Revolution causes people to turn their backs on God entirely

• The Scientific Revolution has no impact on how people think about the world around them.

• The Scientific Revolution causes people to turn back to God and reject science

• The Scientific Revolution causes people to have to use evidence and observations to support their claims

Galileo's use of the telescope leads to

• Support for the heliocentric theory

• The creation of the heliocentric theory by Copernicus

• His creation of the thermoscope, an early version of the thermometer

• The Catholic Church supporting his scientific works

Galileo's uses the telescope to (pick 2)

• Observe Jupiter's moons

Galileo's contribution to the theory of gravity is

• That gravity can be measured with the equation force x mass = acceleration

• Galileo did not contribute to the theory of gravity
