A hypothesis is a prediction on what you think will happen. For experiments on insects being attracted to light or heat, a hypothesis could be that insects are attracted to light over heat.

Are night insects attracted to lamps because of heat or light?
Insects have evolved in earlier ages in which there was generally no light at night other than the moon, and they navigate with the help of the moon. Lights at night are confused with the moon and lead to navigational error, making it seem that insects are attracted to light.
How do bugs get into enclosed light fixtures?
All light fixtures are vented in some way to keep the heat differentials from producing pressure gradients. i.e. so that the materials around the light does not catch on fire. Flies, generally insects 'fly towards the light/heat source' and are persistent enough to find a way in.
Why can't insects see in complete darkness?
Nothing can 'see' in complete darkness, even insects. They have eyes that use the same basic process to see as humans; the reflection of light to the eye. Some creatures can know where things are in total darkness, however. They use things like sound, smell, and heat sensing.

light
Why does white lights attract insects?

Are night insect attracted by heat or light?
There are various experiments that you can do for why insects are attracted to light and heat. Experiments can be done at night with a light source and heat source in boxes to see which one attracts more insects.
Results of are night insects attracted to lamps because of light or heat?
Nobody really knows why this happens.ANS2:Insects are attracted to flames as well as to fluorescent lights. Fire radiates a lot of heat (infra red radiation) and visible light. Fluorescent lights give off very little heat. That would lead most people to conclude that it is the light, rather than the heat that attracts them.Insect lights use UV light to attract insects to their doom. Insects can see UV light and some insects can detect polarized light.

Is this a good hypothesis you think the salt will melt the ice because when it melts it creates heat which melts the ice?
Probably not as the melting proceeds the creation of the heat - i.e., the hypothesis has a chicken egg problem.
What attracts insects?
Both, depending on the bug. Some bugs are attracted to heat, like sandflies, and some others are attracted to light, like moths. There are even more things that bugs are attracted to. Mosquitoes are attracted to carbon dioxide, a gas that you produce by breathing out!
Do heat and light occupy?
Good question.
What is good reflector of heat and light?
A mirror.
What is a hypothesis for which metal absorbs heat the most?
A hypothesis is a guess based on what you know. Which metal do YOU think will absorb heat the most? Write it as a statement and that will be your hypothesis: "I think _____ will absorb heat the most." It doesn't matter if your hypothesis is right or wrong, just that you have a guess.Of course, then you need to test your hypothesis and actually find out which metal does!
According to the heterotroph hypothesis what contribution did ultraviolet light heat and lightning make to the formation of the first organic molecules?
They provided energy sources.
