A scientific theory is. A. A well-tested explanation for a broad set of observations
B. A well-tested explanation for a widely accepted hypothesis
C. A proven explanation for the results of multiple experiments
D. A hypothesis that has stood the test of time

B. A well-tested explanation for a widely accepted hypothesis

Explanation:

This is true about a scientific theory going by the fact of it being a well tested explanation. For example, in one of the Newtons law of motion which he stated to be "To every action, there is equal and opposite reaction", the hypothesis has been known till he was able to offer a well tested explanations with calculations showing that, it was actually true.

freezing

deposition

condensation

explanation;

melting also called fusion is the process where solid becomes liquid, sublimation is the process where solid becomes gaseous without first changing to liquid, deposition involves change from gaseous to solid state, freezing involves change from liquid to solid, boiling or evaporation involves change of liquid to gaseous state, while condensation is the change from gaseous state to liquid state.

endothermic reactions involves absorption of heat from the surroundings or the environment while exothermic reactions involves loss of heat energy to the surroundings.

in this case, sublimation, evaporation and melting are endothermic reactions (gain energy from the environment) while, freezing, deposition and condensation are exothermic (loss of energy to the surroundings) reactions.
