b. Analysis. In the analysis step, you organize and interpret your data to see if they support your hypothesis.

a. Experimentation is incorrect because this is the step in which you do experiments to test if your prediction is accurate.

c. Conclusion is incorrect because a conclusion is a decision you make to accept or reject your hypothesis.

d. Hypothesis is incorrect because a hypothesis is a proposed explanation for why something happens.
