When it proves the tests of repeated experiments
theory
A hypothesis requires confirmation to advance to the status of theory.
No. It can never be "proven" true. It's always open to question, and to any demonstration of its failure.But after time goes by, and no evidence has been presented to demonstrate that the hypothesis fails, and the hypothesis has made predictions that were confirmed by experiments designed to test them, then the hypothesis may be elevated to the status of a theory. But it's still waiting to be debunked.Interesting that a theory can be dis-proven in a day, but can't be proven in a thousand years. That's Science.
A hypothesis is a suggestion of a way to explain something. If the hypothesis is tested and confirmed, it can advance to the status of theory. The conclusion of testing a hypothesis will be either that the hypothesis is confirmed, or it is not confirmed.
A scientific hypothesis could be described as a reasonable guess. If it checks out, it can be promoted to the status of a scientific theory.
In science, a hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon based on observations and background knowledge. If a hypothesis is tested repeatedly and consistently supported by evidence, it may be elevated to the status of a theory. A scientific law, on the other hand, is a concise statement that describes a fundamental relationship between variables in nature, often derived from repeated observations and experimental data. Laws are typically more general and less explanatory than theories.
A hypothesis is a statement made for the sake of argument. It becomes a theory when it has been independantly verified. It is not a fact or truth. A theory only has to have one contradictory example to lose its status as a theory.
Before your hypothesis can advance to the status of a theory, it must pass an experimental test, to confirm its validity.
What is the similarities of theory and hypothesis
A scientific theory
Cell theory is a theory given by R. Virchow in 1855 .It is a theory not a hypothesis because it has been proved thus it can not be considered hypothetical , that's why is not called hypothesis.
