The Scientific Method (Hypothesis) Reading for Understanding

When scientists have made many observations and collected sufficient (enough) data, they suggest a possible explanation for what they have seen and recorded. This explanation, called a hypothesis, is a statement that both explains their observations and data and can be tested. Hypothesizing is a very important step in scientific investigations. A statement is testable if evidence can be collected that either supports or disproves it. A hypothesis may be shown to be wrong, but it can never be proved true beyond all doubt. It can only be supported by evidence. At any time, new data might indicate (show) that a previously accepted hypothesis does not hold true in all instances (at all times). Scientists often must refine (make better) and revise (change) their original hypotheses or even discard (trash) them as they uncover new evidence. A hypothesis will be tested by carrying out an experiment. Experimenting is the process of testing a hypothesis or prediction by gathering data under controlled conditions.
