11.

Darvwin explained how life on Earth evolved over time by examining the fossil record

Explanation:

This question seeks to classify the statements made into Theory, Hypothesis, law or fact.

An hypothesis is a scientific guess which when experimented is conducted, a theory is carefully proposed to explain this experiment and the conclusions thereof. And a law is a certain description (usually proposed by an individual or group of individuals) of a particular phenomenon that must undergone a certain level of scientific inquiry. A fact is however a truthful statement of assertion that could be easily verifiable.

(2) Water freezes at 32° F

Fact (because water freezes at 0°C which is same as 32° F and be easily verified)

(3) The solar system formed from a disk of spinning disk of gas and dust

Theory (This is one of the theories that suggests the formation of the solar system)

(4) F = ma meaning Force = mass × acceleration

Law (This is a mathematical representation of the Newton's second law of motion)

(5) The Universe is expanding

Theory (This is the cosmological theory proposed by Edwin Hubble using the relationship between the speeds of distant galaxies and their respective distances from Earth)

(6) Newton's Laws of Motion explain why orbits are ellipses

Fact (because the Newton's laws of motion indeed provided explanation about the earth's movement around the sun which shows/describes how earth is being pulled into an elliptical orbit)

(7) The Universe was created at an event known as the Big Bang

Theory (This is popularly known as the Big Bang Theory)

(8) More babies are born at the full moon

Hypothesis (This is just a guess and still requires a scientific experiment to back it up)

(9) Matter is composed (made up of) atoms

Theory (This is one of the postulates of the Dalton's atomic theory)

(10) Sections of the earth's crust move around over the mantle as a result of convection

Fact (This is known as mantle convection)

(11) Darwin explained how life on Earth evolved over time by examining the fossil record

Theory (This statement describes what is known as the Darwin's theory of evolution)
