Explanation / Answer

Ans.

The correct answer is B. i.e., a prediction that can be falsified.

The differance between hypothesis and theory is that a theory is a  tested, well-substantiated, unifying explanation for a set of verified, proven factors. A theory is always backed by evidence wheras a hypothesis is only a suggested possible outcome, and is testable and falsifiable.
