Answer:

Option A, Yes; his conclusion is supported by evidence from his experiment.

Dr. Peterson’s study is supported by scientific knowledge. In his research he found that chemical A increase the growth rate of mice by 30% and in order to assure the validity of result obtained, he conducted the same experiment 4 times.
