Based on the evidence from the student's experiment, the most suitable conclusion is:
**Magnetic fields can be observed between objects that are not touching.**
This conclusion aligns with the idea that the magnet is able to attract the paper clip even when they are not in direct contact, indicating the presence of a magnetic field. The other options do not correctly represent the findings of the experiment as described.
