What is the first step in determining whether a group of scientists had created false data in a study? taking the group to court and using a jury find out if the data was true or fake reading through the experimental procedure and comparing it to data given thinking about whether the trend shown seems like it was possible or not conducting the study again using the same tools and then comparing data

I say you need to ask if it is false information then fix it 4 them I had to do this so I can relate

Conducting the study again using the same tools and then comparing data.

Explanation:

A data in the scientific study is the outcome of the experimental process that is performed by the implementation of the suitable scientific methodology. The data obtain can be considered as false by conducting the study again by utilizing the same methodology as well as the tools used by the group of scientists. The data obtain after this process can be compared with the data that is obtain by study conducted by the group of scientists. Hence, the correctness of the data can be determined.  

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
