Scientific Methods Form a Hypothesis Section 2 What Is a Hypothesis? A hypothesis is a possible explanation or answer to a question. Is It Testable? To be useful, a hypothesis must be testable. Predictions Before scientists can test a hypothesis, they must first make predictions. A prediction is a statement of cause and effect that can be used to set up a test for a hypothesis.
