Solution

The correct option is B Hypothesis
A hypothesis is a statement or idea which gives an explanation to a series of observations. Suppose we are given a number of observations or some data based on some observations, and we draw a conclusion based on the pattern of observations. That conclusion is a proposition made as a basis for reasoning, without any assumption of its truth is called as a hypothesis.
