Is a hypothesis a question?
A hypothesis is not a question. If you are in Jr. High or something near that, you can use the structure: If......, then.... to state your hypothesis. For example: If I place one plant in a closet and one plant in the sunlight, then the plant in the sunlight will grow faster.
Do fossils and rocks support the hypothesis of continental drift?
yes it does, one fossil plant that helped support the hypothesis of the conentental drift is glossopteris.

What benefits do Animals get from plants?
Plants and animals evolved together, so it is not surprising that there are many complex plant/ animal relationships. This process of interdependent evolution of two or more species is called co-evolution. Some relationships are beneficial to both parties, while others have a clear benefit for one at the expense, or even death, of the other. Four important plant/ animal interactions are explored here: plant/ herbivore, plant/ pollinator, plant/ disperser, and other examples of mutualism.
How is natural selection and evolution linked?
Natural selection is one of the 'guiding' principles of evolution.

What are some hypothesis regarding the metaphysical branch of physics?
The metaphysical branch of physics is about the philosophy of physics. Ontology is one of the most important hypothesis studying the nature of existence.

What laws are there in Nevada regarding the teaching of evolution and creation in school?
Nevada is pretty evolution friendly when it comes to its science standards. Nevada is also one of the few states that doesn't have a big evolution-creation controversy.
Explain the hypothesis for the evolution of the jaws?
Peter Benchley had a dream one night and when he awoke (at 3AM) he happened to have a notepad by the bed. He wrote down what he saw in the dream.
Where could one find information regarding the plant called catkin?
There are several places where someone can find more information regarding the plan called catkin. Some possible options are Wikipedia, Name That Plant and Wisegeek.
What do you think of the theory of evolution?
It does not mater what anyone thinks about the theory of evolution by natural selection. The theory of evolution by natural selection is the best explanation we have for much of the observed and observable fact of evolution. The theory is internally consistent with the fact of evolution, it is supported by myriad lines of converging evidence and it generates testable predictions in the form of scientific hypothesis. The opinion of no one is needed by the theory of evolution by natural selection and educated people have come to accept the theory.
Why is evolution reffered to as a theory?
I don't exactly know why evolutionists refer to it as a theory, but I do know this. A theory is an explanation or model based on observation, experimentation, and reasoning. According to the definition of a theory, evolution is not a theory. Evolution cannot be based on observation. No one was here to observe it. So evolution should be classified as a hypothesis not a theory. It is only a guess as to how things came about.
Why do scientists call evolution a theory?
Because it cannot be proven or replicated.AnswerIn science, a hypothesis is a good idea, a possible explanation, which might be right and might be wrong. Hypotheses can be refuted by experimentation. If the expectation from the hypothesis is not met by the outcome of experiment, the hypothesis is refuted. The longer a hypothesis survives unrefuted the more confidence we have in it. Evidence can support a hypothesis. The more evidence one has in support of a hypothesis, the more grows our confidence in it. Within the philosophy of science of Karl Popper, a hypothesis cannot be proven, but one can have a mighty amount of confidence in one, proportional to the amount of evidence in support of it. Unrefuted and with backing evidence, a hypothesis is promoted to a theory! A theory is better than a hypothesis. Evolution has much evidence from comparative genetics, comparative morphology and the fossil record. Evolution was once a hypothesis. Darwin collected a large mass of evidence for On the Origin of Species and now we have evidence from Mendelian genetics and comparative genetics, which Darwin knew nothing of. We now have a greater fossil record than Darwin did. There is far more evidence these days (for what is now called Neodarwinism or the Modern Synthesis- the combination of genetics and Darwin's basic 1859 ideas) than there was in Darwin's time. Evolution now has so much evidence that it is best to call it a theory, rather than a hypothesis. Yes, theories are unproven, but in Popperian philosophy of science they cannot be proven. Theories survive refutation and have much evidence and explain a lot. Biology regards evolution as its baseline, its most important idea ever. It might only be a theory of which we can only be 99% confident, but it explains everything so well that most biologists should better call it a fact rather than a theory. Evolution is such a good theory that its pedantic differentiation from 'fact' is entirely unnecessary.
