It was consistent with an important role in the regulation of growth. Therefore, soybeans from blue light conditions partitioned relatively more growth to leaves than red and blue only. The results confirm the general hypothesis. Experimental design was a key factor in the success of the scientific inquiry due to control and uniformity. The investigation can be replicated due to the ease of acquisition of the experimental materials and the uniformity of conditions. The replication of an experiment is an evaluation of validity because it eliminates chance occurrence as a factor in the results of the experiment. The ability of another (especially others plural) to replicate an experiment an evaluation of validity of an experiment because the more an experiment is replicated, the less of a chance that by of repetition of the same results via luck. Simplicity is key in experimental replication. The materials, measurements and conditions are simple to aid in this.
