Once a hypothesis is tested and the results are replicated through further testing, the hypothesis can be said to be proven or disproven. Even if a hypothesis is disproven, the results can be very important and should not be considered a failure under most circumstances.
A well-tested hypothesis is one proven, through repeated experiments and careful observation, to be either right or wrong. An example: you're William Perkin, a chemistry student in England in 1856. Your professor knows quinine is an important drug--it treats malaria. He also knows quinine is hard to get because it's made out of the bark of a tree that only grows in one place. So he asks you to create synthetic quinine. You know the chemical formula of quinine is C20H24N2O2, and you create a hypothesis that oxidizing aniline with potassium dichromate will create quinine. So you write in your lab notebook, "my hypothesis is that the product of a dichromate oxidation of aniline will be quinine." It's a good thing Perkin didn't enter his experiment in an American science fair that demands you prove your hypothesis right, because the product of that reaction isn't quinine. It's mauveine, a purple dye--one so good it launched the entire synthetic chemical industry.
conducting experiment
A hypothesis is tested by an experiment. A hypothesis is an estimate or guess about an outcome. The experiment proves whether the hypothesis is correct or not correct.
hypothesis
An hypothesis is a concept or an idea to be tested.
Since you did not tell us what Maria's hypothesis was or how she tested it, we cannot provide an answer.
conducting experiment
A hypothesis that can't be tested, can't be proved.
A hypothesis is tested by an experiment. A hypothesis is an estimate or guess about an outcome. The experiment proves whether the hypothesis is correct or not correct.
A hypothesis can be tested by an experiment
Not unless its tested by experimentation. If its tested by experimentation. And then if found to be true its no longer just a hypothesis. And if found to be false it becomes an invalid hypothesis, which anyone in their right mind would withdraw as a hypothesis.
A hypothesis is tested by having trials
