Answer 1

The sentence that states that " When Donnie is unhappy with how an experiment has turned out, he chooses not to share his findings with the public or his colleagues" is unethical .

The reason why this statement is unethical is because hiding the information from other scientists prevents them from learning from Donnie's mistakes. Along with this, he is manipulating his experiments. This means he is only sharing the ones that show him in a positive manner. This action shows that Donnie is a liar to the scientific community.

Another unethical statement is "he continues performing an experiment until he reaches the conclusion that he wants and expects. "

In science, researchers are going to reach conclusions they do not necessarily like. However, this is part of the learning process. Trying to manipulate a study just to get the answer you want is unethical.

Answer:

Donnie is also very determined; he continues performing an experiment until he reaches the conclusion that he wants and expects. Sometimes, when Donnie is unhappy with how an experiment has turned out, he chooses not to share his findings with the public or his colleagues.
