Apex is because it is supported by scientific data.
It is backed up by scientific evidence.
There are two forms of "theory." Colloquial usage associates the word with a "guess." However, the scientific usage of the word calls upon a body of evidence to explain scientific phenomenon. For instance, we know the universe is comprised of Atoms; Atomic theory explains the makeup through physics equations. Likewise, Evolution theory explains the mechanism that powers speciation, namely natural selection. Both Atomic and Evolutionary theory are supported by a large body of evidence.
Second answer
Evolution, the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms, is fact.
The theory of evolution by natural selection explains much about the fact of evolution.
That is what theories in science do. They explain phenomenon by being the result of many tested hypothesis, supported by myriad lines of converging evidence, be internally consistent and be able to generate prediction for further testing.
Evolutionary theory is called a scientific theory because it is a comprehensive explanatory model, consisting of independently verifiable facts and laws as well as multiply confirmed falsifiable hypotheses.
It's been tested and found "not to be false".
A scientific theory is a model that withstands testing, like evolution.
A theory, when proven over time, can become a law. Example: Law of Gravity and Theory of Evolution
Darwin's original theory was formulated over 150 years ago. The modern theory of evolution, while still basically the same as Darwin's, is also significantly different. In either case, there is no scientific alternative to the origin of biodiversity.This is equivalent to how there is no scientific alternative to Atomic Theory.
Evolution is a scientific theory. A theory is consistent with all known laws of physics and satisfactorily explains all confirmed observations.
The theory predicts that evolution will happen and in certain ways. The observed evolution makes this prediction correct. It also defines evolution as happening, and as such is perfect evidence in support of it.
No scientific theory ever challenged the theory of evolution.
Evolution is a scientific theory, it in itself is not a science.
The scientific movement accepts the Theory of Evolution. The Theory is the basis for the science of biology.
theory of evolution
There are many books that describe the theory of evolution. For example, there is a book called Evolution: The Remarkable History of a Scientific Theory.
A scientific theory is a model that withstands testing, like evolution.
Yes it is
i dont think its a science its a scientific theory
I accept the modern theory of evolution by natural selection. You can not just on a whim put forth a scientific theory. I suggest you access a good dictionary. The scientific meaning of " theory " is generally the primary meaning.
The scientific theory is evolution.
As a biological phenomenon and a scientific theory.
Darwin's Theory of Evolution is solidly based on detailed observation of many different species, and on logical analysis of those observations, hence, it is scientific.
