A

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, a hypothesis is: "a proposition, or set of propositions, set forth as an explanation for the occurrence of a phenomena"

Given this definition, a hypothesis may or may not be correct. This is what is evaluated and analyzed in the processes that follow, leading to the conclusion of the thesis.
