Both terms are sometimes used interchangeably, but "hypothesis" is more specific. It refers to a certain kind of prediction that is based on extensive research. Usually, a hypothesis will also need to explain itself. After experiments have been conducted, the hypothesis will either be supported or not supported by the results. A prediction does not necessarily require the research and support that a hypothesis needs.
B. A hypothesis can never be proven. It can be supported, unsupported, or partially supported by the experimental evidence. The experimental data resulting from a tested hypothesis can be used to formulate a new hypothesis.
No. An hypothesis is an idea put forward to explain an observation. Often you do the experiment to test the hypothesis. The results of the experiment may help you decide whether to discard your hypothesis or to test it further.
A Hypothesis is a statement or objective one has set out to test or query. eg An unsupported object will fall when dropped. This can be proved or disproved through experimentation. After testing the above hypothesis multiple times (with a scientific method) one can deduce the statement that all unsupported objects fall when dropped. Through more study one can form a scientific theory to explain the happenings in the experimentation. Using the about example the theory of Gravity and its effect on objects can be formed. A scientific theory can be disproven after formation. TLDR: first comes unproven hypothesis, then after experimentation a scientific theory is formed.
The scientific method is a step-by-step process used to explore a scientific query or hypothesis. # Ask a question # Do research # Form a hypothesis # Test the hypothesis through experimentation # Analyze results and develop a conclusion # Communicate results to peers # Peer analysis

A hypothesis must be subjected to rigorous testing before it becomes a theory. A hypothesis is used to explain some phenomenon about the natural world. Once a hypothesis has been created, it can be used to formulate predictions. These predictions in turn are then tested to be accurate through experimentation or observation.

A scientific theory is a hypothesis that has been supported by much research, and is able to explain a wide variety of observations. During the process of formulating a theory, a hypothesis is refined as experiments yield new information. The purpose of a theory is to explain a scientific law.

Hypothesis? Hypothesis is a proposal intended to explain certain facts or observations
In science, a hypothesis and a theory differs in that a hypothesis is a conjecture based on empirical observation or theoretical derivation yet unproven or by any experimental work, and that a theory is a hypothesis that has been rigorously tested by many researchers and supported by strong evidence. Evolution is a theory that has been repeatedly tested, supported by overwhelming evidence, and can be used to explain natural phenomenon very well.
When you are using the scientific method, you would try to imagine a hypothesis which explains an observation, but you might not succeed. A hypothesis that does not explain an observation would be considered a failed hypothesis. You would then need to invent a different hypothesis.
so you have to put in did it help you explain your hypothesis
