Answer:

Competing theories can be a source of new, testable ideas.

Explanation:

Theory is the set of knowledge that seeks to explain, with a high degree of accuracy, all-encompassing phenomena of nature, that is, it is different from the meaning of the word "theory" used in everyday life, when we say that something "is only a theory "in the sense that it is a mere speculation.

Competing theories present a much larger set of knowledge, which gives the universe a source of new and testable ideas
