Which statement best describes the difference between a scientific theory and a scientific law


A. A scientific theory is supported by more data than a scientific law.

B. A scientific theory can be explained observations.

C. A scientific law includes equations

Respuesta :

A scientific law is a statement based on repeated observation. It will always be true under a certain set of circumstances.

A scientific theory is well supported (by evidence) explanation for an occurrence in the natural world.

A scientific law does not need to include an equation.

Therefore, the correct answer is B.

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

A scientific theory is usually proposed to explain certain observations after repeated experiments and available facts. However, a scientific law is more experimented and confirmed than scientific theories - this means scientific law is better supported by scientific facts and data than scientific theory.

Also, not all scientific law can be mathematically represented (includes equations).
