Evidence:
•Definition: Tangible data, facts, or
observations collected through research or
experiments.
•Purpose: To support or refute theories or
claims.
•Nature: Concrete and measurable, coming from
experiments, samples, or observations.
•Example: Fossil records and genetic data
support the Theory of Evolution.
Theory:
•Definition: An explanation or framework for a
phenomenon, developed through observation,
reasoning, and experimentation.
•Purpose: To explain how or why things happen
and predict outcomes.
•Nature: Abstract, evolving with new evidence,
and can be refined or replaced.
•Example: The Theory of Evolution explains
species' changes over time through natural
selection.
