A Theory is a hypothesis that has withstood testing, but cannot be proven infallibly true, meaning that the only way to form a theory is through scientific testing. Reasoning is necessary to form a hypothesis, which will be considered a theory once tested and supported by the results. Two types of reasoning are Inductive Reasoning and Deductive Reasoning.Inductive ReasoningMaking observations and extrapolating to come to a conclusion beyond the scope of current information. i.e.The grass outside is greenthereforeAll grass is greenDeductive ReasoningUsing logic to reach a conclusion, specifically when the conclusion necessarily follows the premise(s). i.e.This mouse is grayandAll gray mice are fastthereforeThis mouse is fastOnce you have a hypothesis, it can be tested using the Scientific Method.Scientific MethodAsk a questionDo background researchConstruct a hypothesisTest your hypothesis using an experimentAnalyze data and draw a conclusionCommunicate your resultsIf the results of the experiment support the hypothesis, then it is considered true. If others are able to duplicate the experiment and achieve the same results, the hypothesis will be considered a theory.inductive
