Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dr.Teeth's prediction is a specific, testable statement that can be supported or refuted through experimentation. This makes it a hypothesis, not a theory (which is a well-established explanation supported by a considerable body of evidence) or a correlation (which is a statistical association between two variables).
