Question

Which explanation justifies why the theory of evolution is a theory and not a law? A. Predicts an organism's ability to adapt to its environment B. It can be expressed as a simple mathematical statement C. Explains the existence of diverse forms of life on earth D. Additional evidence will change the theory into a law

Answer 1

A. Predicts an organism's ability to adapt to its environment

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't think anybody has actually seen an animal evolve, which makes sense. After all, evolution is believed to take many generations to see dramatic change in a species' evolution.

Answer 2

The theory of evolution is a theory and not a law because it predicts an organisms ability to adapt to its environment. A theory explains how and why something happens and has sufficient evidence to back it up. A law is true 100% of the time and can be applied universally.
