D. informed consent.

Respuesta :

I believe the answer is B. experimental bias. Hope this helps!

Answer:

B). Experimental bias.

Explanation:

As per the given situation, Ron is showing 'an experimental bias' as the conclusion of his experiment is biased towards the communication of his desired outcome intended by him. His smile reflects the 'bias' in his conclusion as 'it assists him to pick the correct answer'.

Ron in the given situation himself affects the outcome or observation of the argument as per his desired certain outcome. Such a situation reflects an inherent bias that is hard to avoid in order to propose an unbiased conclusion or outcome. Thus, option B 'experimental bias' is the correct answer.
