Question
multiple-choice question a scientific \law\ is: describes something that repeated observations, experimentation and/or mathematics have shown to always happen in the physical world. less supported by the evidence than a scientific theory. rewatch
A scientific law is a statement based on repeated observations, experiments, or mathematical analysis that describes a consistent occurrence in the physical world (e.g., Newton's laws of motion). A scientific theory (like the theory of evolution) is well - supported by evidence and explains why phenomena occur, while laws describe what occurs. So the first option correctly defines a scientific law, and the second is incorrect as laws are well - supported (in terms of describing consistent phenomena) and theories are also well - supported but in an explanatory way.
