Questões de Concurso

The text develops a historical account from ancient theories of vision to contemporary quantum physics. Throughout this progression, the author repeatedly presents explanatory models, introduces observations or experiments that expose their limitations, and shows how later proposals respond to unresolved problems. Considering this pattern of textual construction, the predominant organizational strategy is:

(a)

A problem-solution structure in which the same question about vision is maintained from the ancient period to contemporary physics.

(b)

A comparative structure organized around national traditions of scientific thought and their different interpretations of optical phenomena.

(c)

A chronological-explanatory progression in which scientific models are related to evidence, limitations, and subsequent theoretical reformulations.

(d)

An argumentative structure intended to establish the historical superiority of the particle model over competing interpretations of light.

(e)

A biographical progression in which scientific change is explained mainly through the intellectual authority of individual researchers.
