Replicability is the repetition of the experiment by other researchers who get the same results as the original experiment. B) Other students repeat the same procedure on other potatoes.

What does replication mean in an experiment?

Following the scientific method, an experiment needs to be replicable.

Replication refers to the need of repeating a research study, under different situations, different subjects, and with different researchers to determine the safety of the original findings and their possibility of generalizing them to other situations and participants.

Replicability is the possibility of carrying out the same experiment by other researchers. When repeating the experiment, results should be the same, or with a minimal variation. Results heterogeneity should be minimal.

Option B is correct. Have other students repeat the same procedure on other potatoes.

The exact same experiment will be repeated by different students -researchers- and their results should be the same as the ones of the first student -potatoes are 40% water-.
