Correct answer: It is tentative and can be revised with new evidence.

Explanation: Einstein’s relativity showed that Newtonian physics, while extremely useful at everyday speeds and scales, breaks down under conditions of very high speeds or strong gravity. Science therefore produces provisional models that are improved or replaced when better evidence and theories arise. The other options are incorrect because scientific knowledge is not fixed, it does not change only from disagreement (changes require better evidence or explanation), and it is not always completely correct.
