Agroup of researchers at stanford university developed software that can be used to distribute the processing of data to anyone who is willing to donate time on their idle personal computers. as a result, the researchers have been able to achieve protein-folding simulations that are far better than those other computing methods have done. which statement best describes the work of these researchers? the work is not scientific because the data are not processed in one location. the work is not scientific because the simulations are not reproducible. the researchers applied creativity to solve a problem in running an experiment. the researchers used only well-established scientific techniques.

Option B, The work is not scientific because the simulations are not reproducible

Explanation:

The scientists have collected the data in a scientific manner , in fact they have done the entire research work scientifically , the only issue with their practice is that they distributed the work of data processing to people who were sitting idle (with no background of research) and that too on their personal computer.

Thus, it becomes an exercise which can not be reproduced again.

Hence, option B is correct

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
