A. Analyze your Data
A. ConclusionExplanation
The correct answer is to state the problem, conduct research, form a hypothesis, analyze the data, and draw a conclusion. In an experiment, the first step is to clearly define the problem or question that the experiment aims to address. Next, background research is conducted to gather information and understand the existing knowledge on the topic. Based on the research, a hypothesis is formulated, which is a proposed explanation for the problem. The experiment is then carried out, and the data collected is analyzed to determine if the hypothesis is supported or not. Finally, a conclusion is drawn based on the analysis of the data, which helps to answer the initial problem or question.Rate this question:
