But remember sa round na to, sa ating panel of experts manga galing ang ating mga katanuman. Dito sa round na to, correct answers are worth 30 points each, pero may 15-point deduction for wrong answers. Let's begin.

A, green, B, blue, C, red, D, violet or E, none of the above. We know photosynthesis, right? The leaves need to absorb light. Blue and red at three chance of the light spectrum are the most effective. Now leaves are usually green meaning the leaves reflect green. So the one least absorbed or not absorbed will be the color green. The correct answer is A, green. So your question is from philosophy of science. What is Thomas Kuhn's concept of incomplete change in fundamental assumptions within a scientific discipline? A, falsifiability. B, paradigm shift. C, scientific revolution.
