D

Make sure the results of the experiment are useful

Step-by-step explanation:

In an experiment, certain variables (independent variables) are controlled to check how they affect other variables (dependent variables) and understand the relationship between them. Also, these experiments usually have a control experiment, of no change, to help compare results and increases their reliability.
