Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the U.S., inventors are given a one-year grace period after they publicly disclose their invention to apply for a patent. This means that they can test the market, generate interest in their invention or attempt to secure funding before filing for a patent. A and B are false statements. Patent laws vary from country to country, and a patent granted in one country does not necessarily provide protection in other countries. Option D is also false since scientific principles or natural laws cannot be patented, only inventions or discoveries that apply these principles in a practical way can be patented.
