For a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, the [[scientific method]] requires that one can test it. Scientists generally base scientific hypotheses on previous observations that cannot satisfactorily be explained with the available scientific theories. Even though the words "hypothesis" and "theory" are often used synonymously, a scientific hypothesis is not the same as a scientific theory. A working hypothesis is a provisionally accepted hypothesis proposed for further research. hypothesis.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:59by 127.0.0.1
