Explanation:
Naturalists began to focus on the variability of species; the emergence of paleontology with the concept of extinction further undermined static views of nature. In the early 19th century Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (1744–1829) proposed his theory of the transmutation of species, the first fully formed theory of evolution.
In classical Latin, though, evolution had first denoted the unrolling of a scroll, and by the early 17th century, the English word evolution was often applied to 'the process of unrolling, opening out, or revealing'. It is this aspect of its application which may have been behind Darwin's reluctance to use the term.

You can't hear sound on the moon because of space. Space is a vacuum so you can't hear anything unless there is a medium for it to travel through (like air)
Hypotheses must be provable. If scientists cannot prove a "hypothesis" right or wrong, they need to change it to a legitimate hypothesis - something you can prove.
If it is proven wrong, they can change certain aspects of it to make a more specific experiment.
