Answer:

If I am correct, the best choice would be C.

Step-by-step explanation:

D is incorrect because asking a question is supposed to be before drawing a conclusion.

B is also incorrect because the hypothesis should be before the experiment is done.

A is incorrect because you can't collect data before you do the experiment.
