Answer 2

The statement that illustrates bias in scientific research is:

**A. An ecologist publishes data funded by a construction company which supports their original hypothesis.**

This statement suggests a potential conflict of interest, as the funding source (the construction company) may have a vested interest in the outcome of the research, leading to biased results that favor their perspective.
