Describe several ways in which a scientific law differs from a legislative law.

Solutions

Expert Solution

As opposed to scientific laws, legislative laws are voted on by people and thus are subject to the whims and desires of the electorate. Legislative laws can be revoked by a grassroots majority, whereas scientific laws can only be modified if they do not account for experimental observations. As well, legislative laws are imposed on people, who are expected to modify their behaviors, whereas, scientific laws cannot be imposed on nature, nor will nature change to suit a particular scientific law that is proposed.

Legislative laws are influenced by voters, subject to change, unlike scientific laws grounded in observation.
