scoundrel [369]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em>A. A broad, well-supported explanation of related observations or events</em>

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a detailed reasoning of a well supported observation or experiment. Though, not just anyone can <em>create </em>a scientific theory... it has to be widely accepted throughout the scientific community!

A law on the other hand, is simply a description of things that happen in the natural world. It doesn't quite say <em>why, </em>with a law, it just is what it is! Laws don't become theories and theories do not become laws!

<em>I hope I was of assistance! Science can be difficult! </em><u><em>Have a nice day and spread the love <3</em></u>

Crank

Answer: 625 grams

Explanation:

14 goes into 56, 4 times.
