How has the concept of a "planet" changed since the 16th century before the invention of the telescope? do you think this shows scientific accuracy or disproves future facts, as one assumes that they will be discredited in time too? ?

Iread this book last year so take this with a grain of salt.gene jumps from the tree to compete with finny due to the fact that gene is always trying to do better than finny. he is put under the grasp of peer pressure due to finny almost forcing him to do this. ever since he first jumped finny kept pressuring him to jump since he thought gene enjoyed jumping.rather than uses this answer you should probably just reread chapters 3-4
