If a theory is challenged by new evidence, it could result in the theory being altered. The correct option would be A.

A theory is formed when a particular outcome under scientific investigation holds true even though the investigations were conducted by independent researchers.

Thus, a theory is not just formed overnight and cannot be discarded as such. If new evidence emerges that challenge a particular theory and this evidence have also been found to hold true by independent researchers, the theory would rather be altered to accommodate the new evidence instead of being discarded.
