Data can be quantitative or qualitative Experimental data is compared to the control data to look for any significant differences Additionally it is good practice to replicate an experiment when collecting data Replication is the number of times an experiment is repeated Remember that a scientist cannot draw a conclusion based on one single experiment The experiment must be repeated many times in order to form a definite conclusion Bear in mind that the data obtained from each replicate will not be exactly the same due to experimental and human error Thus many times the results obtained from each repeat are averaged and statistically analyzed before the data are represented 9 Explain how replication was involved in the corn experiment
