Sally and Maria hypothesized that earthworms lived only in dark, damp places. They measured a one-meter square in a shady spot near a stream. They dug through the soil and collected earthworms. They collected 43 worms. They repeated the experiment in several locations, sunny and dry included. They found the most worms in the shady, damp plot near the stream. Several other groups of science students carried out the same experiment and got similar results. This is an example of
A) bias.
B) repetition.
C) replication.
D) validity.

Respuesta :

because other scientists did the experiment and got the same results it's replication. the other group replicated the experiment and we're able to replicate the results

Answer: C) replication.

Explanation:

Replication in experiments is the process by which the entire experimental process is repeated as done by the previous scientists, keeping in mind all the necessary requirements and experimental conditions so as to determine the correctness of the experimental methodology, relationship between the variables, correctness of the results and other parameters.

Here, several group of students are repeating the same experiment and getting the same results this process is called as replication.
