Answer:

D) Hypothesis, Research, Analysis, Replication

Explanation:

The scientific method is a research method used to produce knowledge. It consists of systematic observations, measures, experimentation, analysis, and verification of a hypothesis. It is based on two aspects: reproducibility (the capability of reproducing the experiment in any other place by any researcher) and refutability (susceptibility to be refused).

There are different steps to follow in a scientific method:

  • Definition and problem statement. The question for which there is not an answer yet.
  • Hypothesis formulation. A hypothesis is a scientific conjecture, not verified that requires corroboration.
  • Data collection and analysis. This step involves testing the observations.
  • Results
  • Verification of hypothesis. This step involves the deriving of the working hypothesis.
  • Conclusions and Discussion.

These steps also include previous knowledge about the study object. A question the investigator wants to answer. The goal, which is what the investigator wants to know. The hypothesis that the investigator makes in order to predict what is going to happen. The experiment is performed to answer the question. Conclusions where the hypothesis is rejected or accepted.

This scientific method needs to be replicable. Replication refers to the need of repeating a research study, under different situations, different subjects, and with different researchers, to determine the safety of the original findings and their possibility of generalizing them to other situations and participants.
