The correct response is: **Both a hypothesis and a theory need evidence to support them.**
A hypothesis is a testable prediction made before an experiment, while a theory is a well-substantiated explanation of an aspect of the natural world that has been repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation. Both require evidence to be validated.
