• Arandom
• Btheoretical
• Cexperimental
• Dpre-established

• A

• B
  3% (1)
• D
  95% (35)

Explanation

Pre-established procedures are correct because investigations require documented, standardized methods defined before the investigation begins - this ensures every investigator follows the same steps, results are reproducible, and findings hold up to scrutiny. Random (A) is wrong because random procedures introduce inconsistency and unpredictability, the opposite of what an investigation needs. Theoretical (B) is wrong because theoretical procedures exist only in concept and haven't been validated for practical application. Experimental (C) is wrong because experimental procedures are still being tested and lack the reliability required for a formal investigation.

Memory tip: Think of the prefix "pre-" - investigators must have their playbook ready before they start, just like a surgeon follows a pre-established checklist before making a single incision.
