A
Investigating
B
Experimenting
C
Observing
D
Confirming results
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The only way to confirm that your results were valid, or true, is to repeat the experiment multiple times. Usually, scientists repeat an experiment three times, but the more times you do an experiment and get the same results, the more valid the results are.

Detailed explanation-2: -replication (in experimentation) Getting the same result as an earlier test or experiment-often an earlier test performed by someone else. Replication depends upon repeating every step of a test, step by step.

Detailed explanation-3: -Why is the ability to repeat experiments important? Replication lets you see patterns and trends in your results. This is affirmative for your work, making it stronger and better able to support your claims. This helps maintain integrity of data.

Detailed explanation-4: -REPETITION. Repeating multiple trials in an experiment helps to reduce the effect of errors. The more times an experiment is repeated with the same results, the more likely the conclusion will be accurate. Multiple trials should be conducted under the same conditions by the same person in order to reduce errors.

Detailed explanation-5: -Results may change over different trials or different conditions. Therefore, it is important that the experiment itself should be repeatable. A repeatable experiment should yield the same results when conducted by different people at different times and preferably-but not necessarily-under similar conditions.
