Which description justifies why the theory of evolution is a theory and not a law? a. explains how organisms change in response to the environment b. predicts which organism is best suited to the environment c. supported by a small amount of empirical evidence d. with more evidence it will become a law

A. Explains how organisms change in response to the environment.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is an EXPLANATION of an aspect in the natural world. In other words, it just tells why something happens. Now it is not just a guess, it is well-supported by evidence and previous studies.

Now to knock out your other choices:

B. is wrong because:

A scientific theory does not predict. It can serve as a basis for a prediction, or what you call a hypothesis, but it does not predict an outcome.

C. is wrong because:

As mentioned earlier, a theory is WELL-SUPPORTED by evidence and previous research.

D. is wrong because:

A theory does not become a scientific law.

an adaptation is a change or process by which an organism takes to be better suited for its environment. for example; migration is a behavioral adaptation, this is needed because birds are not built to last extremely cold climates. there are different adaptations because there are different species needing to adjust to different things, bears don't migrate; they hibernate.
