Answer 4

Process of elimination.

Peer review is quite scientific, as this allows for other scientists to verify the work done by someone. So we know the answer isn't C.

Answer 5

Do you see another one that can be eliminated?

Answer 6

ummmmmmm i think b can be eliminated right?

Answer 7

Well, I think A can be eliminated. Different outcomes just means the independent variable is being manipulated and the dependent variable is responding accordingly.

Answer 8

ok so between b or d?

Answer 9

@Shadow you there? :)

Yeah, just thinking. The answer is likely not D since it doesn't seem like the scientific method is being followed exactly, yet the steps do have scientific elements.
