Answer : Hypothesis - When a new concept that is tested in a scientific investigation is used it is called as hypothesis.
Explanation : Hypothesis is defined as supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence, which acts as a starting point for any further investigation on a particular topic.
When a scientific investigation is conducted there is a quest to find the best possible answer to a question, using a scientific method.
