I mean, does every question has its origin from an answer or is it the other way round?

An answer without a question is a statement which in turn can provoke a question followed by an answer and a further question etc etc.
I am ME is a statement unless I am asked who am I
The question must be layed out for the statement to become an answer

Surely there needs to be a possible answer for the question to be asked??? Mind you, some questions are seemingly impossible, but, to exist, the must have an answer. There must be a theory, but then is it created when that theory is created. Everything has an influence. Maybe you just cant have one without the other.
Without questions, there would never be answers.
Without answers, maybe there would be no questions? I think that questions rely more heavily on answers. But the planet might die of frustration if there were no answers, but if there were no answers, how would we know to ask questions? Sorry, i havent really helped at all... but my opinion is the question came first because we wouldnt have been able to recieve an answer, or call it that for a matter or fact!

None has come first an None has come second. It is Circular in nature. It depends upon the Starting Point, you chose, on the Periphery of the Circle of events.
The same answer is valid for Egg and Hen or many such questions. It is a big CIRCLE that is 0.

to ask a question it means we dont know the answer so how can all questions have origins in answers? it is what we are waiting for but only a hypothesis, so its not really there

I think it is both. In some cases the answer is first, and in some others answers are searched/investigated/found after the questions are asked.

Depends on the nature of the question.
A closed question has a specific answer and is therefore commonly designed to ellicit that response.
An open question is designed to draw peoples opinions out therefore it is rarely designed around a specific answer.

it is really fine Q . it is ;like the matter of egg and hens . Q&A are existing the point is our wonder comes first . e.g
your Q & our A in our minds but once it is asked the answer comes next . in other words , knowledge available , but Q drags it into life , just as A gives life to Q

An answer will initiate a question, not necessarily a Question first before an answer.

Answer has to come first... Question is just due to the lack of recognition , acceptance, discovery of the answer deep within !

Question was first, in the ancient times, when people first started to wonder and ask themselves: why, how, etc... Questions and answers are definitely connected in one metaphysical way: the more answers you have, it's possible to find more and more questions, q&a are connected pair, but in very beggining, first was question.
