In biology, most things are predictive: Toxicity is given in LD50, but one cannot know which half of the population will die, 1% of kids will be born with some type of autism, but we don't know which kids (obviously, there are risk factors, but nothing is absolute), etc....
On the other hand, if I combine water with an acid, it absolutely heats up. If I drop my coffee cup, it's absolutely falling to the floor. (A pedant might mention that the coffee cup doesn't fall in space, but that gets to the heart of the matter - there are preconditions that we understand in physics, but as sciences get softer, those preconditions become less well understood - I assume that as Biology matures, we will understand better those).
I need two words which emphasize the difference between A often causes or predicts B and A must cause B.
