Question

explain what a scientist should do if some data from an experiment confirms a hypothesis and some data does not. could the scientists ignore the data that didnt fit the hypothesis? why or why not?​

Answer 1

Formulating a New Hypothesis
If the initial hypothesis is not supported, you can go back to the drawing board and hypothesize a new answer to the question and a new way to test it. If your hypothesis is supported, you might think of ways to refine your hypothesis and test those.
