Do scientists consider hypothesis as being a fact?

No. In science, facts are those phenomena which can be consistently observed and measured. A hypothesis is a testable, educated guess about what sort of rules might govern the behavior of the observed phenomena. Once a hypothesis is formed, it is then tested to determine how well it fits teh phenomena, and whether it can therefore provide a useful means of predicting the behavior of similar phenomena. If the hypothesis fails to provide an explanation with verifiable predictive power, it is rejected, and a new hypothesis is formed, then that new hypothesis is tested. If the hypothesis is verified -- testing shows that it does provide a useful explanation of teh phenomena with some predictive power -- then it may eventually become a _theory_, providing it stands up to repeated testing, and is not falsified (and therefore rejected). A theory represents a well-tested explanation for how a particular phenomenon or particular phenomena behave. All of the "testing" refered to above will be carried out according to the _scientific method_. So a "theory" is not a fact, but an -explanation- for observed facts. And a "Hypothesis" is a working model for a theory, a model awaiting testing, or in the process of being tested.


What criteria do scientists use to determine whether something is organism or not?

Scientists consider whether an entity exhibits characteristics such as growth, reproduction, metabolism, response to stimuli, and organization of cells. The presence of these attributes typically indicates that the entity is an organism.


Why do scientists debate whether viruses are alive?

Scientists debate whether viruses are alive because they lack the characteristics of traditional living organisms, such as the ability to reproduce on their own. Viruses depend on host cells to replicate and lack cellular structures that define life. Some argue that viruses are on the edge of life, while others consider them more as biological entities.

A science student makes the following statement plant growth is affected by the color of light what is the student doing?

Why would i know! The visible spectrun of sunlight has seven color depending on the wave lenght. Violet light has minimum wave lenght and red light has maximum wave lenght. It is the red light which favours maximum plant growth and the green light brings minimum.

Can a hypothesis that has been rejected be of any value to scientists?

Yes. But usually a hypothesis (if, then, because statement) is changed overtime to establish a conclusion on the investigation. The point of the collection of the data is to show whether or not the hypothesis was supported, and if not needs to be corrected/modified. Certain parts may still be helpful/kept but in most cases it is changed


What is the significance of a hypothesis?

The significance test is the process used, by researchers, to determine whether the null hypothesis is rejected, in favor of the alternative research hypothesis, or not.

Should flemings hypothesis be supported or rejected based on the experiment?

To determine whether Fleming's hypothesis should be supported or rejected based on an experiment, one would need to analyze the results of the experiment in relation to the hypothesis. If the data from the experiment aligns with the predictions made by Fleming's hypothesis, then it should be supported. However, if the results contradict the hypothesis, it may need to be rejected or revised.


What is a conclusion based on information?

A conclusion sums up all your observations,inference, and hypothesis in the experiment based on the data collected. This is to prove whether your hypothesis is accepted or rejected.


What happens if a hypothesis is rejected?

You cant go through the full scientific method process.(Because the 7th step is drawing conclusions & checking whether your hypothesis is right or wrong.)


Is a hypothesis is a decision based on the results of the experiment.?

No. An hypothesis is an idea put forward to explain an observation. Often you do the experiment to test the hypothesis. The results of the experiment may help you decide whether to discard your hypothesis or to test it further.


Made before scientists can test a hypothesis?

A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon. It is made before scientists conduct experiments or gather data to test whether it is accurate or not. The purpose of testing a hypothesis is to determine if it is supported by evidence and can be considered a valid explanation for the observed phenomenon.
