Final answer:

Research that could proceed without REB review includes journal articles without peer review, fieldwork projects with minimal risk, and applied research with practical solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Research that could likely proceed without REB (Research Ethics Board) review includes:

  1. Journal articles or popular press articles that do not use a peer-review system. However, it is important to note that research published without peer review may not be reliable or used as a basis for other scientific work.
  2. Fieldwork projects such as interviews or observations that have minimal risk to participants.
  3. Research that falls under the category of applied research, where the purpose is to find practical solutions, such as finding a chemical to cure a disease based on the biochemistry of a microorganism.
