1. knows that scientists assume that the universe is a vast system in which basic rules exist that may range from very simple to extremely complex, but that scientists operate on the belief that the rules can be discovered by careful, systemic study.
2. knows that scientists control conditions in order to obtain evidence, but when that is not possible
for practical or ethical reasons, they try to observe a wide range of natural occurrences to discern patterns
