<h2>Theory</h2>

Explanation:

c. a set of closely related ideas that explain an observation

Theory can be defined as a set of ideas that are linked to each other and explains a particular observation. Theories can be scientifically analysed.

They can be a speculation, a proven fact or an educated guess on something that cannot be seen.

Theories are often analysed to support or reject a pre-existing theory or hypothesis.
