INTRODUCTION

In many cases, current knowledge relies entirely on past information, but the notion that
current knowledge is not completely compatible with previous knowledge is also
accurate. The accuracy of this statement is derived from the power of past knowledge
to illuminate current knowledge. Drawing a line between information that can be
regarded as past and information that should be considered in the past creates a major
problem in this case. In other words, stabilising the point of view of particular
information as in the past or present creates a visual illusion in resolving whether
current ideas are entirely present in previous knowledge. The ideas and knowledge of
modern day are based on past knowledge as these ideas are the culmination of past
ideas, which have evolved into what people now understand. For example, Albert
Einstein developed the theory of general relativity by looking at ideas from different
perspectives (Discover Magazine, 2005; Ferreira, 2010; Redd, 2017). Einstein used his
10 years of work to incorporate acceleration into the general theory of relativity. He
also realised that great things affect the difference in space and time, which people feel
as gravity. Judging by the statement, Current knowledge is wholly dependent on past
knowledge, but current knowledge is also not wholly dependent on past knowledge to
ensure that there are no gaps in knowledge that past knowledge determines the
understanding of the modern world. In this way, a good way to move forward in this
statement is to explore the realm of past ideas to manage current ideas and how
unique information can be compiled. The following discussion uses natural science AoK
to provide details of the statement, "Current knowledge is wholly dependent on past
information, and Representative knowledge is not wholly based on past information";
the discussion is considered as the reason for the extension and the claim as well as
the counting of the statement.

NATURAL SCIENCE

For the purpose of knowing, one can agree that current views on the natural sciences
are based entirely on previous knowledge. This assertion is reflected in the area of
knowledge, Chemistry, where the field is based on alchemy; alchemy is a field that looks
at human endeavours to turn iron into gold (Webb, 2015; Chandler, 2019; Khan
Academy, 2019). Without knowledge of alchemy, chemistry might not have developed in
a knowledge-filled environment. Boyle assisted in the processes of altering chemical
alchemy as he developed the experimental method, which was applicable to physics
(Khan Academy, 2019). In this case, Boyle compared the two sciences by revealing that
chemistry also deserves attention as a field of physics. This knowledge approach to
borrowing from a different field of inquiry emphasises the importance of previous
knowledge in shaping current ideas; because the experimental method has proven to be
desirable in physics its use in chemistry is considered to be efficient and. Therefore, the
statement, Today's information is based entirely on previous information, is accurate.
Opposition to the above concept arises when one looks at a chemical reaction. In
Chemistry, scientists cannot detect direct reactions, so these workers rely on thought-
based information (Buskirk & Baradaran, 2009; We open, 2019). Most of the ideas are
inspired beyond the direct support of modern knowledge. Nicholson, for example,
pointed out that Porto objects were present in space space (Scerri, 2014). In this
regard, Nicholson pointed out that these materials provide an opportunity for the
production of common earth chemicals. Accordingly, he provided the same materials as
nobelium and coronium; In this view, Nicholson is described in the unassigned lines of
the corra known as the solar coronas and the main stellar nebulas such as the Crab
nebula of Orion. However, Nicholson's ideas were wrong; even though Nicholson's ideas
seem to be well developed, the ideas they have produced are still poorly developed.
However, Nicholson successfully developed new information without relying on previous
information, proving that current ideas do not completely trust previous information.
The above assumptions follow the view that the current opinion is based on the
reliability of previous opinions, but with only a few cases presenting details such as total
mistrust of previous opinions. Finding completely new information is difficult because
such information cannot be supported or supported by evidence. This kind of
information may be incorrect as it has never been read or read properly. Nicholson's
ideas offer an idea in this way; Porto-to-scientist science Therefore, psychological
formation is said to be wrong (Scerri, 2014). However, the information developed by
science is new, so current ideas should not always be attacked by previous ideas. This
development suggests that current knowledge can provide unique insights without the
need to look past information. In this case, the only reason that current knowledge can
be viewed as a complete contradiction of past ideas is when previous knowledge
provides the background or authenticity needed to build the validity of certain ideas.

As chemists, biological knowledge differs from previous knowledge to make sense of


modern development. Storage, for example, requires decades of data collected through
surveys and surveys (Kindsvater et al., 2018). Insufficient detail hinders efforts to detect
and preserve many species (Sczzz et al., 2019; The University of Montana, 2019).
However, modern computer-ready methods facilitate the process of integrating retrieval
models with human data by focusing on well-studied data types and raising data-related
interests (Kindsvater et al., 2018). Thus, researchers can rely on the contribution of
organisms through data collection processes to fill the biological gap. The recent
decline of biodiversity promotes the proliferation of biodiversity. Tourism
conservationists have been monitoring the changes in the environment over the past
decades. This type of development creates an important critical context in helping
people to maximise information that monitors past progress, which can improve the
accuracy of results. In this regard, one would be correct to say that the facts present
are subject to previous opinions.

Contradicting the above view comes when one looks at times in history where people
are developing new information, suggesting that current facts do not rely entirely on
previous information. For example, prior to 1675, people thought that the only living
thing in the world was a naked body (Kratz, 2019). However, Antony van Leeuwenhoek
has found bacterial soil (Mahadevan, 2011); the seller stumbled upon his discovery by
looking at a home-made microscope. This development exposes the human capacity to
develop new knowledge without regard to previous findings or details. In this case, Van
Leeuwenhoek was listed as the first person to detect bacteria; germs are, later,
described as small animals moving around here, there, and everywhere (Kratz, 2019).
This reinforces the view that current ideas do not completely rely on past information
because people can create new and different information without relying on previous
ideas.

The above assumption leads to the conclusion that the present view is entirely
dependent on previous information, but in some cases, some people may develop
information that is not entirely dependent on previous knowledge. The discovery of
Antony van Leeuwenhoek confirms this position as a scientist developing
unprecedented knowledge of his time (BBC, 2019). Getting viruses in his time was a
logical success. However, the fact that a large part of today's knowledge is based on
past facts creates the impression that previous information is essential for the
development of new ideas. For example, the progress of biodiversity can be realised
only through the reasoning of previous knowledge. This type of development reveals
the extent of previous data to improve the appreciation of ideas in the modern world.
As a result, in many cases, the available ideas are based entirely on past information,
but a few cases suggest that people can improve current knowledge without looking at
past facts.

CONCLUSION
Current information is entirely dependent on previous information, but current
information may not be based on previous information. This statement is well
documented in the natural sciences as this AoK looks at previous ideas to create new
ideas. However, drawing a line between the information that should be viewed in the
past and the information that should be considered in the present creates the obvious
problem of finding that existing knowledge relies entirely on past ideas. Modern ideas
and knowledge are based on previous knowledge because these ideas are the result of
past ideas, which have been developed into what people today value. For example,
alchemy and biodiversity study spaces that inspire ideas about events and discoveries
made in the past. However, people like Nicholson and Antony van Leeuwenhoek have
developed new knowledge of Porto's products and services; These ideas are truly
unique and do not give the impression of prior knowledge. In Mathematical thinking,
Representative data still relies entirely on past assumptions, but current data does not
completely rely on past assumptions you rely on to make sure there are no gaps in
information from ancient knowledge that has enhanced modern world knowledge.
Therefore, the most desirable way to come up with ideas with this statement is to
investigate the importance of past ideas in shaping modern ideas and if the details may
not be possible, as discussed above.

The above ideas create new insights about the place of past knowledge in influencing
modern ideas. Some ideas are based on the development of previous knowledge, while
others rely on the construction of previous knowledge to make sense. Opinions based
on previous information may have been better developed as evidence used after they
were developed. Therefore, information based on past observations may be better
developed than non-new information.
