For example, maps cannot include all the details of the features of the earth such as mountains, valleys, etc.“Modols help us illustrate the concept and formulate hypothesis. When models are used, the scientists are able to notice patterns and develop and revise representation that become a useful model, which makes their scientific knowledge stronger and helps them understand more about the nature of science.
