Step-by-step explanation:

By using control, you have something to compare with the experimental treatment. A skeptical scientist does not believe in everything he or she is told. By being skeptical about establishes ideas, a scientist is open to new ones. The only requirement is a commitment to science and reason, to evidence, and to the quest for truth. Scientific skeptics attempt to evaluate claims based on variability and falsifiability, they discourage accepting claims which rely on faith or anecdotal evidence. Skeptics often focus their criticism on claims they consider implausible, dubious or clearly contradictory to generally - accepted science. The only requirement is a commitment to science and reason, to evidence, and to the quest for truth.
