An hypothesis is a possible explanation for a set of observations or answer to a scientific question. A supposition or proposed explanation made on the   
basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further  
 investigation. 
 And practically, an hypothesis is used as the basis for further experiments, where the hypothesis is rigorously tested under varying conditions. The hypothesis that is tested and modified under different conditions may become a general 
 theory
 .The hypothesis that has the least number of variables sufficient to explain the phenomenon is preferred.

Mrac [35]

Answer:

Genus = Elephas

Species = maximus

Explanation:

Carolus Linnaeus, who is considered to be the FATHER OF TAXONOMY for his immense contribution to the classification of living organisms. Carolus Linnaeus between the year 1735 and 1758, developed a scientific system of naming organisms using two-way naming system called BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE.

The two Latin names given to organisms were derived from their generic and specific epithet i.e. one of the names is GENUS and the other SPECIES. According to this question, the scientific name using the binomial naming system for Indian elephant is Elephas maximus. This means that Elephas is the part that refers to GENUS while maximus is the part that refers to SPECIES.
