Question

The concept of evolution by way of natural selection is a central tenet in biology that has been tested in numerous ways by many scientists but is not yet considered a law. Evolution by way of natural selection is most likely which type of concept?

a hypothesis that can be accepted as true based on repeated experimentation with similar results
a likelihood based on the chance that a particular event will or will not occur
a statement of fact that is generally accepted to be true and universal because it has always been observed to be true
a probability that is an answer to a scientific question and is based on prior knowledge or research

Answer 1

The correct answer is that hypothesis can be a true based which is found on repeated experimentation which has similar results.

Evolution is termed as the change in characteristics which are heritable of population over successive generation.

A good example of biological organisation include molecules, individual organisms and level of species.

The repetition of formation of new speciation, they change within anagenesis and loss of extinction to all through the history of evolution in life.

Hypothesis explains more about a phenomenon. For hypothesis to be scientific it needs to be tested first.

Answer 2

a hypothesis that can be accepted as true based on repeated experimentation with similar results

A hypothesis is a supposition made by the scientist. In order for a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires for it to be tested. If a hypothesis cannot be tested, it cannot be scientific hypothesis. It is important to state the hypothesis clearly at the beginning of a scientific paper. This enables the reader to understand the problem.
