Answer:

D

Explanation:

Hypothesis: a supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation.

A: "plant b grew 5cm" is a result, NOT a hypothesis

B: B is a question, NOT a hypothesis.

C: "Grow plants in different colors of light" is a "condition", it does not show any propopsed explanation of the experiment.

D: This is a logical guess/ proposed explanation of the experiment made before the start of the investigation.
