The correct answer is A. Robert wanted to see if his theory was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders.

Explanation:

In the scientific method and science, the correct term to define the explanation proposed by a scientist about the phenomenon or event he wants to study is a hypothesis. On the other hand, the term theory in science is used to refer to explanations that have been repeatedly proved or confirmed. This implies the idea "cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders" in Robert's experiment is a hypothesis and not a theory and therefore, the statement "Robert wanted to see if his theory was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders" contains an incorrect use of a scientific term.

experiments can be designed and performed by anyone with a curious mind

Explanation:

baking soda and vinegar explosions are an experiment that doesnt require expensive equipment

always do more then one trial, like shooting a basketball, if you shoot once and miss, can you say that you will never make it? or if you make it, can you say that you will never miss?

variables are what you are testing, you have to eliminate as many as possible so they dont effect your experiment

if you have any questions, leave them in the coments and i will try to answer them, if this helped, pls give brainliest.
