Question

when an experiment is repeated and the new results are different from the original results what may likely be inferred? a additional test/trials are needed. b both results are wrong due to the discrepancy. c the hypothesis is incorrect and must be modified. d the first must be inaccurate because you are sure the second results are correct.

Explanation:

In scientific experiments, when repeated - experiment results differ from the original, it often indicates that the initial hypothesis may be incorrect and needs modification. One cannot assume either set of results is wrong or that the first is inaccurate without further investigation. Additional trials may be part of the process to re - evaluate the hypothesis, but the most likely inference is about the hypothesis itself.

Answer:

C. The hypothesis is incorrect and must be modified.
