Importance:
Prediction is a forecast or a prophecy. An example of a prediction is a psychic telling a couple they will have a child soon, before they know the woman is pregnant. A statement of what will happen in the future.
Predictions provide a reference point for the scientist. If predictions are confirmed, the scientist has supported the hypothesis. If the predictions are not supported, the hypothesis is falsified. Either way, the scientist has increased knowledge of the process being studied.
