Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

No there is a huge difference between theory and hypothesis. A theory is a research done at a wider scope which is well affirmed to explain any natural phenomena and is tested frequently through experimentation and observation. While in a hypothesis , a limited amount of data is tested with a small set of data.

In almost all the hypothesis, the statement of the problem in unproved and unrecognized , it is only tested for limited interpretations.

Thus, option D is correct.
