Which of the following best explains why what we know about cells is called a theory and not a law? A) Cell theory explains cell behavior where a law would describe it. B) Cell theory is still changing and therefore cannot be called a law. C) We do not have enough evidence yet to call cell theory a law. D) We have not reviewed cell behavior enough yet to call it a law.
The correct answer should be A) Cell theory explains cell behavior where a law would describe it
Theories are used to explain phenomena, while laws just describe what will always happen. Such as the law of thermodynamics that describes what is going on inside a room when heat leaves it.
