Answer:

When a scientific problem is posed and clearly defined, in the search for its final solution, one starts from a hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

A hypothesis is a solution to a scientific problem that is:

  • thoughtfully
  • clearly formulated in the statement
  • trial
  • significant (non-trivial)
  • logically and experientially permissible
  • theoretically well explained by available scientific knowledge
  • experientially verifiable
