It is, but so is gravity. In science, 'theory' means 'idea that has been proven over and over and is generally accepted as truth'. It's a pity it doesn't mean the same in everyday language. ^^
Darwin gathered evidence for evolution through observations during his travels, especially to the Galapagos Islands where he studied differences among the finches. He also analyzed fossils and conducted experiments on selective breeding of plants and animals to support his theory of natural selection. Additionally, he corresponded with other scientists and collected data from various sources to build a comprehensive case for evolution.
A hypothesis is a good acurate guess based on the facts and evidence, while a theory is just a wild guess. But a hypothesis and theory's are both made by scientists with more knowledge than a regular, ordinary person.
it is a mere miracle that he survived. The police told press.
The word 'evolution' can refer to both established fact, and to the theoretical model explaining observations in terms of what we know about that fact. Evolution, the fact, refers to the observed phenomenon of the changing of allele frequencies in populations. Evolution, the theory, refers to the theory that evolution (the fact) is a result of reproductive variation (eg. mutations), and is mediated by differential reproductive success (natural selection) to produce new forms. Evolution, the theory, is as close to fact as any science can come. Note that the term 'scientific theory' does not have the same meaning as the popular vernacular 'theory'. In everyday use, the word 'theory' may be used to describe a mere hunch or speculation - whereas in science, a theory is a comprehensive, well-supported explanatory model, consisting of multiply verified hypotheses and independently verifiable facts and laws. Evolutionary theory encompasses the central hypotheses of common descent and natural selection.
"Zoning out" may be a symptom of Derealization or Depersonalization, or possibly just mere boredom. It may become necessary to visit a medical professional if it becomes distracting or severe.
When developing a theory, finding patterns increase its credibility. For example, evolution. It started as a mere theory. It grew and became widely accepted as fact but only because we can find patterns in evolution, particular traits being continued on through generations.
We are just a mere stage in evolution, after the human race there will be newer, smarter races. It's just that our turn is now not in a billion years.
weird, dear, theory, mere, beer
Though one can claim to believe in Divinely-guided evolution, this is often not the case. The general paradigm in which Evolution is taught, is one of mere random events.Many think that science, and specifically Evolution, have proved that there is no God. They don't comprehend that even if Evolution was an unquestionable fact, it would not automatically follow that God isn't there. They also seem unaware that there are some highly-qualified scientists who do not believe in Evolution.Those wishing to look for further evidence may find these links useful:See also:Is there evidence against Evolution?God's wisdom seen in His creationsCan you show that God exists?
The root word of merely is mere (mere-ly)
Just the one :)
A system of ideas that explains many related observations and is supported by a large body of scientific evidence is known as a scientific theory. Scientific theories integrate and generalize various hypotheses and facts, providing a coherent framework for understanding natural phenomena. They are subject to testing and refinement as new evidence emerges, distinguishing them from mere speculation. Examples include the theory of evolution and the theory of relativity.

If you say "He's just a mere child. What damage could he have done?" you would pronounce it "meer". It rhymes with deer.
mere exposure theory - apex
A scientific explanation that is supported by repeated observations and experiments is a scientific theory. For example, the theory of evolution by natural selection explains how species change over time through the processes of variation, competition, and environmental adaptation. This theory is backed by extensive evidence from various fields, including genetics, paleontology, and ecology, and has been repeatedly tested and refined through observations and experiments. Such robust support distinguishes scientific theories from mere hypotheses.
They are just called baby mere cats.
