Answer:

B. Analyze data that was truly observed, and not data that was expected or desired.

Explanation:

In the scientific method, scientists or researchers are expected to make fair assessments and analysis of data. This prevents, what we call bias. When making conclusions, scientists need to analyze the data as they are and what was observed even if it does not agree or come out the way they expected it. If one will manipulate the results just to justify their own reasoning, the results cannot be regarded as facts.
