Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Ideally, the data would be shared with other scientists in the form of a research paper submitted to a respected scientific journal in a relevant field. After the paper would be published, more scientists should be able to replicate these results and if their results point in the same direction - that indeed a drug that treats thyroid cancer has been found, then the next step would be to gain ethical approval and test the drug on animals.

So in summary, it would be best to do D first and C second.
