In science facts are irrefutable is this true or false?
Ideally, all accepted facts would be absolutely, irrefutably true. However, mistakes are sometimes made and accepted facts can be disproved. I guess, technically, no "fact" is ever truly irrefutable, as anyone can try to disprove the findings of another person. (They can attempt to refute it.)
A scientist makes a claim of having discovered an eternal life potionIs this a testable hypothesis?
The hypothesis would have to be phrased in such a way as to allow for experimenting, but yes.
What statement is the strongest claim for an argumentative research paper?
Adding another traffic light will help ease traffic on Main Street.
What does suggest mean in science class?
Here's an educated guess. It means that a body of evidence apparently supports a hypothesis, but more and stronger evidence is needed before the hypothesis can be taken seriously. The evidence that suggests the validity of the hypothesis may even be anecdotal, or general untested 'knowledge', or informally gathered. Some experimentation has to be done to try to refute the hypothesis. You would not want to put a lot of weight on the assumption that the hypothesis is absolutely true until you have exhausted, to the best of your ability, the possibility that it is false.
What if your friend tells you that the stimulus of music makes his goldfish swim faster How would you design a controlled experiment to test your friend's claim?
You could play different types of music and watch the fish to find out how fast it swims, and then watch the fish when no music is being played.

A sentence with the word refute?
A compound sentence is made up of two or more independent clauses. An example of a compound sentence that uses the word "refute" would be: You continue to refute my theory, so I will no longer discuss it with you.
Claim: The school should only purchase and drive electric vehicles to help the United States decrease its dependence on foreign oils. Which statement is an example of a major counterclaim to address in an argumentative essay with this claim?
Converting to electric vehicles would be too costly for schools that are already facing severe budget problems :) -Apex-
How would you Refute his coy mistress?
Andrew Marvell's To His Coy Mistress says that it is better to have sex than to be dead. So if you refute it you would need to say that it is better to be dead than to have sex. I suppose the best way to refute Andrew Marvell is just to kill yourself - but that isn't a very sensible way to get good marks in a poetry exam.

What two authors?
How do you refute bahais?
I don't understand why you would want to "refute" someone's religion. If you don't believe in someone else's religion or views, that's completely fine. Just treat them with respect and go along your way.
Protection of an authors idea?
A Copyright would protect an authors idea.
Can a lawsuit be filed against a lawsuit?
Yes, in most cases a person can counter sue or counter claim. Of course you need to check with you specific legal jurisdiction. Notwithstanding that caveat, if what you are asking is "can I sue someone for having sued me", generally, the answer is "yes." A defendant may counterclaim or file a claim in the same cause against the Plaintiff for "malicious prosecution in a civil matter," (or something to that effect based on the jurisdiction of the law.) You can also sue under a different set of facts or understanding. I.e. Joe sue Anne alleging that Anne owes Joe $10,000 for back rent. Anne could also Sue Joe alleging that he owes her $2,000 to finish the bathroom renovation. Anee withheld the $10,000 as payment for the bathroom renovation. These are two separate, yet connected cases. When the counterclaim arises from the same transaction or occurrence as the main claim, it is generally referred to as a "compulsory counterclaim", or words to that effect. It is significant, because if the claim is not asserted as a counterclaim, many jurisdictions will prevent it from being brought as a separate lawsuit. In contrast, if a claim exists against the same party, but arises from a different transaction or occurrence, it generally may, but does not have to be asserted within the main claim-it may be brought as a separate action. Again, it is important that the law of the jurisdiction be researched to determine governing rules. Unfortunately, such a cause of action usually cannot be heard until the original matter has been heard. The burden is still on the party who brings a cause of action to prove that cause of action. That means, the Defendant would have to show all the necessary elements to prove malicious prosecution of a civil matter. As an aside, many attorneys will expressly request sanctions against another party for frivilous or vexatious litigation.
Can you cancel divorce proceedings?
If you filed the complaint or petition, you may dismiss it. If the other party filed the complaint, or if they filed a counterclaim, they would need to dismiss it.
How do you refute Charle's Darwin theory?
You can easily refute the theory of evolution--just as easily as you can refute Newton's theory of gravity, or Einstein's theory of relativity. You just can't refute these theories using science or evidence with ease, as these theories are extremely well supported. If you could confirm the existence of fossil bunnies in undisturbed Cambrian strata, that would serve as excellent evidence of a fundamental flaw in Darwin's theory. If you could find a natural specie such as Kirk Cameron's crocaduck, evolution could not explain such a chimera, and forces at odds with Darwin's theory would obviously be at play.
