Scientists repeat the experiments to verify results and reevaluate scientific explanations.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific explanations are the tentative statements which includes the reason and cause of a natural phenomena or event. These explanations are rectified again and again by conducting research by the scientists on the same lines.

If a data generated after the current scientific explanations is required to be framed into question. Then re-experimentation or re-analysis of the question should be done by implementing the same methodologies used in previous studies or different methodologies should be used to answer such questions. This will help in generating valid and acceptable results.
