After a scientist finishes conducting an investigation, he or she is expected to publicly present the results. why is it important for a scientist to communicate his or her results with other scientists? if a scientist does not publish his or her results, then the results will never be considered important. the results may influence future investigations conducted by other scientists. the results must be disproven by other scientists. if a scientist does not publish his or her results, he or she may never take credit for any discoveries made during an investigation.

The correct answer is the results may influence future investigations conducted by other scientists.

After the completion of the research, the scientists discuss their finding with other scientists. This allows them to validate their study. The discussion help other scientist to perform further researches.

The further researches allows to perform the experiments again (replication), which further elaborates, if the idea is correct or not. It also helps to correct if there is any bias or misconception.

a "theory" a suggestion that is not 100 % accurate, or a figure. some people say its a theory because they of all the passed theory's about one subject. it depends sometimes theory might be accurate and sometimes they are.
