Scientific laws are theories that have been proven to be true.

@DiamondCoder I don't think that's correct. How did you come to that answer? I believe it's A because scientific theories are based on laws. Laws only describe observed phenomenon in nature, not why or how. http://www.livescience.com/21457-what-is-a-law-in-science-definition-of-scientific-law.html

Um Scientific laws are facts that describe natural events? if a theory is proven true all the time it can be a law

OpenStudy (ladycielphantomhive):

No, it can't. Scientific Theories do not turn into Laws. Scientific Laws are the basis of Theories. Laws are what describe what's happening, and theories try to find out why. http://www.livescience.com/21457-what-is-a-law-in-science-definition-of-scientific-law.html
