Which of the following is a limitation of using a model to study a natural event?

A.

The results of a model event are often much more accurate than those of the actual event.

The model and the results it generates will have no relation at all to the actual event.

The results of a model event may not be similar enough to the results of the actual event.

D.

The size and design of the model will be too similar to the actual event.

C. The results of a model event may not be similar enough to the results of the actual event.

Explanation:

The problem with models is that sometimes we trust them too much! Sometimes they are not accurate for long-term actual events. This is answer choice C.

Models are never more accurate than reality, so rule out A. The model is based on our predictions of the actual event, so rule out B. The model being "too similar" to the actual event is what we want! So rule out D.

C
