Detailed explanation-1: -In order to be considered scientific, hypotheses are subject to scientific evaluation and must be falsifiable, which means that they are worded in such a way that they can be proven to be incorrect.
Detailed explanation-2: -In science, a hypothesis is an educated guess that can be tested with observations and falsified if it really is false. You cannot prove conclusively that most hypotheses are true because it’s generally impossible to examine all possible cases for exceptions that would disprove them.
Detailed explanation-3: -A scientific hypothesis is accepted if there is no way to demonstrate that the hypothesis is wrong. Science experiments are used to prove or disprove a hypothesis. If the results do not agree with the hypothesis, the experiment can be performed again using different variables to further test the hypothesis.
Detailed explanation-4: -What is the test for whether a hypothesis is scientific or not? A hypothesis is scientific if it is possible to prove it wrong. If one cannot be proved wrong, it cannot be proved right, and is then “speculation".
