Question 2 • PA Human Anatomy & Physiology A 2026-2027 SMITH IC

In which way could the results of an experiment have bias?

Answer
A
when samples sizes are large
B
an outlier data point is present
C
when sample sizes are chosen at random
D
data that has been evaluated for accuracy

Explanation

An outlier is an unusual data point that can pull results away from what is typical and distort the experiment’s conclusions. Large sample sizes and randomly chosen sample sizes do not automatically create bias, and evaluating data for accuracy helps reduce errors. So the choice is “an outlier data point is present.”
