* Hypothesis: A proposed explanation for a phenomenon. In science, it's a testable prediction.
* Quicksand: A type of sand that behaves like a liquid when disturbed. It's a dangerous situation.
So, what does a hypothesis do in quicksand?
The answer is: A hypothesis would get stuck, just like anything else!
This is a play on words:
* Hypotheses are ideas, not physical things.
* You can't literally "do" anything in quicksand, it's a dangerous situation.
