In a laboratory, smokers are asked to "drive" using a computerized driving simulator equipped with a stick shift and gas pedal.

The correct answer is A. The control group

Explanation:

In an experiment, the control group refers to the participants that do not receive special treatment or receive a placebo, which does not affect them. On the opposite, the experimental group includes the participants that are given special treatment. For example, to test the effects of medicine the experimental group will be given the medicine, while the control group will be given a placebo. This is important because the control group allows researchers to understand the real effect of the medicine or factor that is tested.

According to this, in the case presented those that smoke the fake cigarette or cigarette without nicotine are the control group because, in opposition to those that smoke a real cigarette, they do not have a special treatment but only serve as a standard to understand the effect of the real cigarettes in the number of collisions while driving.

Alex

Answer:

Genetic drift is the change or mutation in the gene pool over generations. It can take several generations for a genetic drift to take place in a community. But if the population of that generation is smaller, there are higher chances that the genetic drift would occur over the next very generations. Any mutilations that disrupts the natural course of genetic transfer can cause genetic drift to take place in those species.
