Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
ways that scientific investigations can be retested are:
A
measurement and control
B
repetition and replication
C
defining a problem and hypothesizing
D
concluding and analyzing
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Repeated replication of investigations may turn a hypothesis into a theory. If research results can be replicated, it means they are morelikely to be correct. If results cannot be replicated they are likely tobe incorrect. If other scientists had not tried to replicate the research, the truth might never have come out.

Detailed explanation-2: -Repetition occurs when multiple sets of measurements are made during one scientific investigation. Replication occurs when a scientific investigation is reproduced by another person. Repetition is multiple trials, when replication is when you redo the entire experiment.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.
