Answer to Question 1

A necessary part of science is reporting one's results and conclusions in a standard way, such as in a peer-reviewed journal article. The communication gives other scientists an opportunity to evaluate the information for themselves, both by checking the conclusions drawn and by repeating the experiments.

The scientific community consists of critically thinking people trying to poke holes in one another's ideas. Their collective efforts make science a self-correcting endeavor.

Answer to Question 2

True
