Why is evolution considered a theory and not a hypothesis?

A hypothesis is an educated guess where a theory is a confirmed hypothesis. It is no longer a guess it is now a fact. We have hard evidence and studies that state evolution is real.

Evolution began as a hypothesis when it was first researched by Charles Darwin in 1831. He wanted to show that organisms adapted over time due to a variety of factors.

It is considered a theory because it is a general idea, supported by years of research, data, statistics, etc. that explains a general concept; as well as lay out a general rule that can explain most questions pertaining to the subject.

Hope this helps, and I'm the brainiest! :)
