A scientific law describes a consistent pattern or fact about how nature works, and it is based on repeated observations. Because laws are supported by extensive evidence, they are likely to remain valid as scientists conduct new experiments, though their descriptions may be refined. Laws describe what happens; they do not explain why it happens, so A and E describe theories instead.
