Answer:

Repetition

Step-by-step explanation:

Veronica's measurements is more of a repetition than replication.

Repetition involves taking repeated measurements. The aim is to attain a more precise, accurate and reliable set of data that can perfectly mimic the observation being made.

Replication involves duplicating an experiment mostly to validate the claim of such experiment.

Since we are dealing with a brand new experiment, it is not a replication.
