- Evidence from many scientific studies may support several related hypotheses in a way
that inspires researchers to propose a scientific theory that ties those hypotheses
together. In science, the word theory applies to a well-stated explanation that unifies a
broad range of observations and hypotheses and that enables scientists to make
accurate predictions about new situations. On the other hand, scientific laws do not try
to explain the ‘why’ or how the observed events might happen, but only that the event
actually occurs the same way again and again.

- Science and society are related in a way where
science both influences society and is influenced by
society. Using science involves understanding its
context in society and its limitations. Science tries it’s
best to find solutions from problems that occur in
society.
