Answer:

The control of this experiment is the rat that received sugar in place of the drug.

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment, control is characterized by the individual (or object) who has not received what is being tested in the experiment. In the case of the above question, the experiment wants to test the effectiveness of a drug in fighting cancer. All rats received different doses of this medicine, except for one mouse that received sugar in place of the medicine.
