replicate
Significado: To reproduce or copy something exactly; in research, to repeat an experiment or study to verify its results.
Replication is a cornerstone of the scientific method — if results cannot be replicated by other researchers, their validity is questioned. The 'replication crisis' in psychology and other fields refers to the difficulty of reproducing published findings. The word also has biological meanings, describing how cells or DNA copy themselves.
