Random chance is an important part of a simulation because it is a way to imitate the complexity of the natural world. By incorporating random chance, a scientist ensures that a series of steps are followed: O A. exactly the same way every time. O B. in a slightly different way each time. O c. to the end without any step being skipped. O D. backwards or in a reverse manner.

Step 1
Random chance would not result in the same way every time, so this option is incorrect. B. Random chance would indeed cause the steps to be followed in a slightly different way each time, making this option a possible answer. C. Random chance does not guarantee Show more…

What is one benefit of using a Simulation? - Can predict exact values - Can incorporate randomization - Can rely on a single calculation - Can avoid using a chance device
Samriddhi S.
Simulations require a distribution to be specified, like a normal distribution. Many times, the exact distribution to be used is unknown, so we have to assume it. One argument against using simulations to perform risk analysis is that there is no real benefit because the set of assumptions is simply shifted from assumed parameter values to assumed distributions of parameters. So are simulations worth it or not?

Computer simulations use as a way of introducing some realistic variability into the underlying model.
