Question

Which statement provides the most likely explanation for the faulty results

Answer 1

The results are announced to the public
The conclusions are based on multiple trials
The data collection was not accurate or precise.
Other scientists don't have as sophisticated equipment

Answer 2

I would have to say "The data collection was not accurate or precise." The reason for this would be that a simple mistake in the collection of data could alter the results later on.

Answer 3

Announcing your results to the public will not change them; the more trials you conduct the more accurate you results will be, and as for the sophisticated equipment you don’t always need them to recreate an experiment.
