Indirect evidence |
|
Theory |
-a guess as opposed to fact -explanation or model for something that is supported by evidence -may have started as a guess but has been proven right with a number of evidence leading to believe that it is a fact -constantly revised so that they fit the current evidence and best expains what we observe -has several parts which concentrate around a single event/phenomenon |
|
Law |
-observed so many times that scientists are convinced that they will always happen -highest level of proof -almost always takes the form of a mathematical equation |
