Answer:

The correct answer is option b. Jose's hypothesis is both testable and falsifiable

Step-by-step explanation:

The testable hypothesis is a hypothesis that can be tested and then proved or disproved on the basis of the testing result and statistics collected.

The falsifiable hypothesis is a hypothesis that contradicts itself by a primary or simple observation.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
