A scientific theory is an explanation of a phenomenon in the natural world that is well - supported by evidence. The cell theory (all organisms are made of cells and cells are the basic unit of life) is a scientific theory. A scientific law describes a relationship or pattern in nature (e.g., laws of motion), and a societal law is a rule made by humans for society. The term "theory" in everyday life is often a guess, but in science, it's a well - established explanation.
