Jacquelyn Buchanan · Answer 2

I believe the answer is: a. hypothesis

Hypothesis is the initial explanation for a certain occurrence that made through observations only, without being backed by the data from research. The purpose of experiments that by the scientists is to find out whether the initial hypothesis that they have is correct or not.
