Answer
A
replace the data and conclusions from experiments that fail.
B
design new experiments to prove other scientists are wrong.
C
repeat their tests until they get the desired results.
D
review the experiments and conclusions of other scientists.

Explanation

Scientists strengthen the validity of evidence by examining how other researchers designed their experiments, analyzed their data, and reached their conclusions. This critical review can uncover errors or limitations and help determine whether the findings are supported. The correct choice is “review the experiments and conclusions of other scientists”; changing failed results or repeating tests until results fit a desired outcome would undermine scientific integrity.
