Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam's idea is open to the possibility of error and different results, which is a fundamental aspect of the scientific method. Joe's idea giving the same result when tested repeatedly may suggest that it is not open to possibility or challenges, making it more likely to be pseudoscientific.
