The statement that illustrates bias in scientific research is:
An ecologist publishes data funded by a construction company which supports their original hypothesis that an endangered animal's territory is not endangered.
This scenario suggests potential bias because the funding source (a construction company) may have a vested interest in the outcome of the research, potentially influencing the results to favor their interests.
