A student states, "The wave model is better than the particle model for electromagnetic radiation because it is easier to understand." Is the student's statement a scientific claim?(1 point)

Yes, it is because simpler scientific models are better.

No, it isn't because the particle model is better than the wave model.

No, it isn't because the statement is an opinion.

The scientific method is a procedure employed by scientific towards understanding the world around them as well giving explanation for phenomena in the natural world.

The scientific method involves:

observations
asking questions
putting forward a hypothesis
testing the hypothesis through experiments
analyzing results of the experiments and drawing conclusions
