Answer:

D. No, since some theories better account for more important data than do others.

Explanation:

While it is true that total objectivity is impossible, and no theory can fully explain a phenomenon, some theories are better than others at explaining things (mostly because they are built on previous theories).

For example, Einstein's General Relativity is better at explaining the Universe than Newton's laws of general motion, or Copernicus' heliocentric view of the Universe, even while the three theories are an improvement over the Ptolemaic geocentric cosmology that dominated Western thought for millenia.

And while Einstein's theories are not perfect, adhering to Newton's or Copernicus' theory instead would be unscientific.

How does a bill become a low
lana [24]

My answer is for the United States.

Briefly, the bill has to pass both the Senate and the House of Representatives and it must not be vetoed by the president. That is how something becomes a federal law.

A state law is much the same way except the governor takes the place of the president. If there is only 1 house in the state then it goes from the house of representatives to the Governor who has 10 days to veto it. Nebraska is the only state without a senate.
