Answer:

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

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 .

What is the objective lens used to locate the specimen and first focus?
Mandarinka [93]
Course alteration is the first to be utilized to find the example, and just with the low power objective. When seeing an example, you should dependably utilize the lower control target focal points first. Low power focal point gives the most stretched out field of view and makes it less demanding to discover the example when you look through the magnifying lens. Finding the example at high power, without first focusing it in the field of view at low power, is almost outlandish.
