Explanation:

The scientific theory is a conceptual framework used to explain facts or phenomena and to make predictions.

The theory is fundamental to science because it allows scientists to organize and understand observations.

The construction of a theory begins with a hypothesis. The scientist believes that a phenomenon occurs in a certain way, so he/she performs observations under the scientific method to prove that his/her hypothesis is valid or not valid.
