Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
"You cannot stop, the experiment must continue." is the only statement listed that explicitly tells the "teacher" that they cannot stop and that the experiment must continue. The other statements provide reasons or justifications for continuing, but do not explicitly push the "teacher" to continue despite their hesitation.
