conducting experiment
Your hypothesis is supported by the data. You cannot prove a hypothesis because somebody may do some other experiments and disprove it eventually. You can only disprove a hypothesis or indicate that it is supported by the data.
That depends on the result of the experiment. The experiment is a way to test a hypothesis, and it's completely fine if the experiment disproves the hypothesis. Ideally, though, the experiment will support the hypothesis.
not only to prove a hypothesis, but disprove it as well
as many as needed to prove or disprove it
hypothesis!!! it all goes back to the scientific method :) And before you make the hypothesis you make an observation- though the hypothesis is the first step (I was being technical)
It is important to be able to test the hypothesis because testing your hypothesis is how you prove or disprove your theories. If it is disproved then you can change your hypothesis.
The researcher's working theory of what s/he expects the research either to prove or disprove.
