Detailed explanation-1: -Caira reads in a science journal that replication and repetiton are so important, but she did not understand the difference between them. Which of the following best explains the two terms? Repetition is when a scientist repeats an experiment; replication is when a scientist conducts an experiment on genetic material.
Detailed explanation-2: -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. On the other hand, repeating experiments allows you to identify mistakes, flukes, and falsifications.
Detailed explanation-3: -If research results can be replicated, it means they are more likely to be correct. Repeated replication of investigations may turn a hypothesis into a theory. On the other hand, if results cannot be replicated they are likely to be incorrect.
Detailed explanation-4: -Replication of a study is repeating a study’s procedure and observing if the prior findings repeat in similar conditions. A study is replicated when the results of original study are as closely related to the newly collected data.
