  • sell: 'Sell' is a verb that does not relate to the scientific process and does not fit grammatically.
  • results: 'Results' is a noun that refers to outcomes, but it does not fit here as it does not describe an action performed by scientists.
  • data: 'Data' is a noun that refers to information collected, but it does not fit as an action in this context.
  • picture: 'Picture' is a noun that refers to a visual representation, which does not fit the action being described.

Correct answer: data

Explanation: The word 'data' is a plural noun that fits grammatically in the context of the sentence, as it refers to the information collected by scientists. It logically follows the mention of results, as data is what scientists analyze to derive those results.
