Which is characteristic of reliable experimental results?
o
a. the data were collected from an experiment that was designed to
prove one scientist's hypothesis.
o
b. the data were reproduced by other scientists using the same
experimental methods.
o
c. the data were produced by a single experiment, so the scientist
only had to follow the scientific method once.
o
d. the data support a conclusion that the scientist reached using
logic and critical thinking.

B. The data were reproduced by other scientists using the same experimental methods.  

Explanation:

One of the features of reliable experimental results is their reproducibility — other scientists must be able to produce them.  

A. is wrong. An experiment that is designed to prove a hypothesis is biased.

C. is wrong. A conclusion based on a single experiment is suggestive but not conclusive. It takes a number of experiments to provide a strong statistical relation between the variables.

D. is wrong.  The data may support a conclusion that the they reached using logic and critical thinking, but there may still be a flaw in the thinking, which other scientists can point out.  

the energy to form plasma comes from heat or electricity in the atmosphere!
