Asked by John
Why is it important to scientists for a hypothesis to be testable? How would the experiment differ if it were not? What is an example of each type? Write 3-5 sentences.
This is what I have so far
"A scientists job is to gather information to further knowledge and they are constantly looking for evidence and data. If a hypothesis is not testable, then there is no way to settle it based on evidence and see if their question is true or false. "
All I need is how an experiment would differ if it were not testable, can someone help? Or maybe give me a link?

The experiment is the test. Do the results support or contradict the hypothesis?

Hey
Pretty sure it's a trick question--that, or it's phrased oddly. The experiment wouldn't exist if the hypothesis were not testable, because, as it says, the hypothesis is untestable. Thus, no experiment can be done, and the hypothesis will always be neither true nor untrue because of lack of evidence either way.
You've got the concept, you just to rephrase it into a clearer answer.

The question is kind of confusing but from my understanding, The hypothesis needs to be realistic enough to be put through a trial. Thus if it isn't able to be backed up by some type of existing events then theres no reliable way for them to assume the outcome of a test isn't going to be crazy or harmful.
