A biologist conducted an experiment to determine the rate at which DNA mutations occur. The biologist was careful to record the steps of her experiment, as well as her observations and results. What should the biologist do next?
A.
Report her results in a scientific journal.
B.
Ask the local newspaper to publish her results.
C.
Hide her results from other scientists so that they won't steal her idea.
D.
Come up with a new hypothesis that she can test.

A.  Report her results in a scientific journal - should be the action that the biologist should do next

Explanation:

Once conducting an experiment a biologist or a scientist should record the values, observations and inferences correctly because science requires construction of all data, facts, values, explanations, observations, and predictions that are observed and evidenced.

Research findings are published in a scientific journal because the research findings are stored, saved and can easily be referred for future reference.

This will be evaluated by other academicians and scientists and can be compared with past results to value the achievements made by the current researcher.  This will also give way for future prospects in the research.

This will add academic credibility to both the biologist and her institute. When presented in a literature form, this can be accessed by scientists, academicians, peers and others to refer and cite valuable information in their research.  

Others can use the findings to help with advancements of the research in the same topic. It gives an immense feeling for the biologist or any researcher to see his/her work being published on a recognized journal and will encourage to work more.
