Answer:

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

Explanation:

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. And since all the time same result was obtained, the conclusions from his study can be accepted.  

Thus, any scientific knowledge which is tested and trialed and has established similar results every time can be considered a valid study .
