Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

This is what is referred to as peer-reviewing. To gain veracity for her results, the fellow scientist replicates the experiment under the same parameters that she did and determines if the same results are achieved, If so, the results and experiment gain veracity and can be quoted on other scientific journals. For the experiment to be replicated, it needs to be clearly defined in the report, a requirement for all scientific reports.
