No, an observation is the act of noting or perceiving something using the senses. A prediction, on the other hand, is an educated guess about what may happen in the future based on evidence or reasoning.
A prediction based on existing knowledge or understanding.
After making a prediction, the next step in the scientific method is to test the prediction through experimentation or observation to see if it is accurate and can be supported by evidence.
Conducting an experiment
A hypothesis is not a fact. It is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon based on observation and reasoning. It is also not a prediction, but rather a testable statement that can be supported or refuted through experimentation and data analysis.
A prediction that has to be testable is one that can be proven true or false through empirical observation or experimentation. It should be specific, measurable, and capable of being verified or refuted using evidence or data.
prediction is when you do not know what will happen but you guess that it will happen. observation is when you see something

Summary Prediction Observation Question
Observation is the act of noticing and recording something that has been directly perceived. Inference involves making logical conclusions based on observations and prior knowledge. Prediction is a statement about what will happen in the future based on observations, inferences, and patterns.

no, hypothesis is sort of the fancy way of saying "guess" or "prediction". Observation is doing an experiment or observing (watching)
It is an observation. Since it already happened, it can't be a prediction. Since it is stated precisely, there is nothing inferred. You might predict or infer that the tree will hit someone or something.
