Wrong on all counts. This is so wrong I do not even know where to start.
You are perpetuating persistent MYTHS.
* There is NO such thing as a singular step by step "method" that all scientists follow or must follow. Scientists use literally THOUSANDS of very different methodS in different specialties.
* There is NO heirarchy between hypotheses, theories and laws. Laws are NOT immutable. That is NOT even a characteristic of a law! Laws could changed tomorrow eith new evidence, realization of past mistakes or newly gained perspectives. There is NOT ANYTHING that makes a law above opr better than a theory.
These are ALL different animals that serve different roles. One can NEVER become another.
They differ in BREADTH, NOT leve of support.
Hypotheses have multiple lines of evidence behind them and can be SO complex they are best described in the form of a computer program.
You are very misinformed. I suggest "University of California at Berkely Misconceptions About Science'
What we all earned in 7th grade- the poster version is erroneous NONSENSE AND MISINFORMATION.
Little, if any, science is done that way....
