Question

Marine science question: what skill would most likely benefit any scientist who is interpreting the result of a scientific experiment?
creativity
engineering
mathematics
rigidness

Answer 1

Answer: mathematics

Explanation:

Mathematics is the study of quantity, space, structure of a concerned entity or population size. A scientific experiment may be based on the analysis of variables must be having large sample size. Therefore, quantitative estimation  of the results is required. Hence, a scientist requires mathematics to interpret the results of a scientific experiment.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option C, Mathematics

Explanation:

A scientist who is evaluating the result of any scientific experiment must have a good understanding of mathematics or statistics. All the scientific experiments incorporates mathematics /statistics to nullify or prove their assumed hypothesis. Therefore, the end results of such experiments are in terms of some numbers derived through integration of some advanced mathematical tool or theory. Experiments with quantitative  end result definitely require mathematical understanding of an evaluator. However, for experiments with qualitative end result also require mathematical understanding of an evaluator as even the qualitative end results are backed by mathematical formulations, theories and concepts

Hence, option C is correct.
