Question

Emily came to see her advisor about doing a research study for her ph.d. dissertation. "what are you going to investigate?" he asked. "i believe that drinking orange juice before an iq test will raise a person's score," she said.

Answer 1

Emily's answer constitutes a "hypothesis".

A hypothesis, in a scientific context, is a testable proclamation about the connection between at least two factors or a proposed clarification for some watched marvel. In a scientific experiment or study, the theory is a concise summation of the scientist's forecast of the examination's discoveries, which might be bolstered or not by the result. Hypothesis is the center of the logical strategy.
