New evidence that contradicts current predictions, advancements in technology that allow for better testing of the theory, or a shift in the scientific consensus based on improved understanding of a phenomenon can all contribute to a theory changing.
The theory of social evolution holds that society is moving in a definite direction towards progress and development. This theory posits that societies evolve and change over time in a linear and predetermined manner.
Scientists are most likely to change a scientific theory if new evidence contradicts the existing theory, if the theory fails to explain new observations accurately, or if a more comprehensive theory emerges that better explains the phenomena in question. Scientific theories are constantly refined and updated based on rigorous testing and evidence.
Yes. If a scientific theory cannot be "falsified" - that is, proven to be not true - then it isn't "scientific". A scientific theory will always lead to some tests that can be performed. If the test fails - that is to say, if your theory doesn't behave in accordance with the experimental results - then we can say that the theory is "disproved". This is the problem with a lot of the "global warming" and "global climate change" hysteria; the computer models for climate change make a number of predictions, but the models don't behave as predicted. The global climate change theory is, if we judge by the results of the models, disproved.
The theory used to explain changes in state is the Kinetic Molecular Theory. This theory states that the state of matter is determined by the movement and energy of its particles, with changes in state occurring when the particles gain or lose energy.
If you could travel faster than light, then you could also travel to the past. This is related to the definition of simultaneity, in the Special Theory of Relativity.If you could travel faster than light, then you could also travel to the past.

In theory it could. A virus goes into a cell an replaces its DNA to make that cell produce more virus. So in theory we could make a viral infection that would go into the cells and change the DNA, it would be very completed though.
Because new things are discovered which make the old theory obsolete. In addition experiments testing the theory can show it to be wrong.

it can be used to make predictions, we can change it, and we can learn from it. Hope this helps. :)
"Make" could be replaced with the following:come up withconcoctconductdevelopproposepublishput forth.
Lippitt's theory of change says that if you bring in an external change agent into a situation, then effect change will occur. The Lippitt's theory is often used in nursing to effect change in behavior.

Lamarck's theory, known as Lamarckism, proposed that organisms could pass down acquired traits to their offspring. He suggested that an organism could change during its lifetime in response to its environment and these changes would be inherited by its offspring. However, this theory has been largely discredited in modern biology.
They use them to make new observations, that may result in the change of their theory.
It can change if it is proven wrong, or if a new theory is proven more likely to be true.
yes you can, in theory. But it is very difficult to change an established 'ruling paradigm' (however incorrect).
