If a hypothesis can stand the test of repeated examination, it can become a theory.

Explanation:

A theory is a well-substantiated explanation of an aspect of the natural world that can incorporate laws, hypotheses and facts. A theory not only explains known facts; it also allows scientists to make predictions of what they should observe if a theory is true. Scientific theories are testable. They can be tested to provide support for, or challenge, the theory. The word 'theory' has several meanings: a guess or speculation.
