Hypothesis : It is a statement that predicts the relation between the cause and the effect. It is basically an idea or a probable answer that will lead to predicting the results.
If nitrogen rich biofertilizers are added to the soil, then the
growth of the plants will increase to a greater length.
The above hypothesis can be an alternative hypothesis that suggests
that biofertilizers are indeed needed for the growth.
The null hypothesis that can be taken under consideration is :
Addition of nitrogen rich biofertilizers do not have any impact on
the growth and length of the plant.
Prediction : The statement leading upto a
solution that can be applied to confirm the tentative result or
idea of the hypothesis.
For example : If biofertilizers are added in a definite
concentration, there might be some observable changes.
This is a kind of prediction that follows up with the above
hypothesis that will lead to the research.
