The correct response is:
A hypothesis is often untested, while a theory has been extensively tested.
A hypothesis is a specific, testable prediction about the relationship between variables, often based on limited evidence. In contrast, a scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that has been repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation.
