To determine

The importance of avoiding bias for scientists.

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Scientists perform various experiments to discover new things. The experiment must be performed without any errors or bias. The principles or things presumed before the experiment without any scientific information or proof is called bias. The result of the experiment effects due to the bias.

The results and conclusions of the experiment become wrong due to the bias. The scientists avoid the bias to obtain accurate results of the experiments. The experiments must be performed various times and analyze each experiment to obtain the conclusion of the experiment.

Conclusion:

It is necessary to avoid bias in the experiments to get accurate results and conclusions. The bias provides the errors in the experiments and the scientists avoid it in the experiment.
