The information has been changed to support a claim.
C
The information shows what the person or group wants it to show.
D
The information was collected following a specific and reliable method.

Explanation

Science relies on evidence gathered through specific, reliable methods so that observations can be checked and repeated. Therefore, “the information was collected following a specific and reliable method” best describes information associated with science. Popular belief, altered information, or information presented to support a desired conclusion does not establish that a claim is scientific.
