Atobacco company funded amelia to run experiments and publish a paper. she spent a year completing several experiments to find a way to process tobacco leaves that would be better for health. amelia conducted controlled experiments, and her results were the same each time. when scientists began conducting peer review, several of them were concerned that the results would be biased. which is the most likely a reason why? her funding was from a source that could profit from the results. she did not carry out the experiments for the minimum of 5 years. most scientists do not conduct research on tobacco products. her results should have shown variation in the outcome

The correct option is A)  Her funding was from a source that could profit from the results.

Explanation:

A peer review can be described as the testing of research done by a researcher by other researchers having the same level of expertise. Usually, a researcher has concerns over a research which is being done for the sake of any kind of benefit such as money, fame etc. Such researches tend to manipulate data so that their motives can be achieved.

As Amelia was being paid by a tobacco company for her research, other scientists might be concerned that her research might not be authentic and would have been manipulated for the benefit of the tobacco company.

many other transport proteins, often called pumps, move materials against a concentration gradient. active transport drives molecules across a membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration. this process, shown in figure 5.1, uses transport proteins powered by chemi- cal energy.
