Question

. A researcher confirmed her hypothesis by obtaining data through a scientific study. She published her work and results, while proudly stating she had developed a new theory. How would other scientists most likely react to this claim? A. They would support her claim of a new theory because she supported it with data. B. They would support her theory because she published her research for others to use. C. They would reject her new claim because her hypothesis probably disagrees with others' studies. D. They would reject her claim of a new theory because she was the only person to complete the scientific study.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. They would support her claim of a new theory because she supported it with data.

Explanation:

A scientific study is done to confirm the hypothesis which is based on scientific data. Scientific data is defined as factual information collected by doing experiments or methods for studying a specific purpose.

As shown in the question, a girl publishes her work and results based on scientific study and scientific data, so she would get support from other scientists on her claim of a new theory because she supported it with data. A new theory based on scientific data is more accurate and true.

Hence, the correct answer is "A."
