Howbeit‚ Darwin retained within his science a hypothetico-deductive method that formulated a hypothesis which created testable experiments on an empirical scale. As well as‚ Darwin understood that hypotheses allowed for the interaction between the development of creative predictions and viability of these ideas by critical testing. Even though‚ a
