The Central Limit Theorem states that as sample size increases, the distribution of sample means becomes increasingly normal, regardless of the distribution of the population. This allows scientists to use data from a sample to make inferences about the larger population they are studying. Therefore, the correct answer is B, as it allows scientists to reach a conclusion about the underlying population of what they are studying by using data from a sample.
