Respuesta :

I suppose it is B.
hope I am correct =)

The correct answer is C. Test the hypothesis for confirmation, using many trials conducted on AIDS patients

Explanation:

In science and fields derived from it including medicine, the results of the research are only validated if after multiple tests or trials the results are consistent. Additionally, for validation, the experiments or trials must be carried out in the same conditions and directly address the issue or phenomenon studied. This implies, in the case of validating a cure for AIDS multiple trials should be conducted to test the hypothesis and prove if the cure is effective and this should be conducted on AIDS patients rather than on plants or any other population as the cure would be used only in AIDS patients.
