HELPP :( Which statement describes the most common ways in which students and professional scientists communicate the
results of their scientific research?
A. Students communicate results in oral reports to the class, and professional scientists communicate results in written
reports.
B. Students communicate results in scientific journals, and professional scientists communicate results in laboratory
reports.
O Students communicate results in laboratory reports, and professional scientists communicate results in scientific
journals.
O Students communicate results through secondary sources, and professional scientists communicate results through
primary sources.

The correct answer is C. Students communicate results in laboratory reports, and professional scientists communicate results in scientific journals.

Explanation:

Both students and scientists can carry out scientific research that involves studying a phenomenon by using the scientific method and scientific instruments. However, professional scientists and students differ in their level of knowledge and expertise in science. This makes scientific research made by scientists to have some differences in comparison to scientific research by students.

One of these differences is the way results are communicated. Indeed, students develop simple scientific research and the results are communicated in laboratory reports at school, colleges, etc. On the other hand, professional scientists develop complex research. Due to this, results are communicated in academic texts with strict criteria and that can be seen by other scientists, these are known as scientific journals.
