Answer:

a) Measurements have a good precision.

Explanation:

Accuracy is the proximity of the data to the value considered as real, in this situation we do not know the real value and we do not know if the data is accurate or not, so we can discard options b and d.

Now, precision is the proximity of the data obtained among themselves and that is what we can observe, so the appropriate answer is the option a.

The correct answer is option C, that is, hypothesis.

The fundamental concept of a hypothesis is that there is no pre-determined result. For a hypothesis to be considered as scientific hypothesis, it has to be something, which can be refuted or supported via carefully crafted observation or experimentation.
