The kinetic molecular theory states that all matter is made up of atoms that are in continuous random motion. If a scientist discovered that several atoms seemed to move in a predictable pattern, what is the likely effect of this discovery on the kinetic molecular theory? A. Since the new discovery contradicts the theory, the theory would be replaced or dismissed.

B. Since the discovery adds to current knowledge, the theory would be modified.

C. Since the discovery presents evidence that supports the theory, the theory would be further supported.

D. Since the discovery disproves the theory, the theory would need to be modified into a law.
