• North is to the top of the map.
• Streams are shown with dashed lines.
• A graphic scale for measuring horizontal distances is shown below the map.
• Estimate elevations between contour lines to the nearest half-contour interval; assume that the top of a

Evaluate the following statement. "Simplified models such as Glatzmaier and Roberts' computer simulation cannot falsify a hypothesis."

A) This statement is false because the failure of a correlation between the model and the hypothesis could be due to an error in the model, not the hypothesis. B) This statement is false because the failure of a correlation between the model and the hypothesis shows that there must be some error in the hypothesis. C) This statement is true because the failure of a correlation between the model and the hypothesis could be due to an error in the model, not the hypothesis. D) This statement is true because the failure of a correlation between the model and the hypothesis shows that there must be some error in the hypothesis.
