Question

question 5 of 10
which of the following is true about a scientific hypothesis?
a. the hypothesis must follow the scientific method.
b. the hypothesis must predict the outcome of the experiment.
c. the hypothesis must be testable.
d. the hypothesis must form a scientific theory.

Explanation:

A scientific hypothesis is an educated guess that must be testable through experiments or observations. It doesn't necessarily have to follow the scientific method (the method is used to test it), doesn't always predict the outcome accurately as it's a starting - point for investigation, and forming a scientific theory is a later stage after much testing and evidence - gathering.

Answer:

C. The hypothesis must be testable.
