B.The results of the second experiment should be less accurate. C.The results of the experiments should be similar. D.The results of the experiments should be one hundred percent certain.

Answer 1

C. The results of the experiments should be similar.

Explanation:

• If the results of an experiment are not similar, then it means that the experiment might not be designed properly or the hypothesis for which the experiment was being done is wrong.
