his, they recruited 88 men and 131 women older than 55 years and in good health. Participants were randomly assigned to receive the? herb,30 mg 3 times a? day, or a matching placebo. A measure of memory improvement was determined by a standardized test of learning and memory. After 6 weeks of? treatment, the data indicated that the herb did not increase performance on standard tests of? learning, memory,? attention, and concentration. These data suggest? that, when taken following the? manufacturer's instructions, the herb provides no measurable increase in memory or related cognitive function to adults older than 55years with healthy cognitive function. Complete parts? (a) through? (g) below.
?(f) What is the control group in this? study?

A. The placebo group serves as the control group because this group corresponds to the reference point that will be compared to the other group.

B. The men serve as the control group because this group corresponds to the herb that is being tested.

C. The women serve as the control group because this group corresponds to the herb that is being tested.

D. The herb group serves as the control group because this group corresponds to the reference point that will be compared to the other group.

Answer: The placebo group serves as the control group because this group corresponds to the reference point that will be compared to the other group.

Step-by-step explanation:

The control group is a reference point in an experiment they usually never receive any treatment and serves as benchmark to compare other test result which are measured. The control groups also includes individual with similar characteristics like those been tested e.g Age, health history.

Members in a control group are usually given placebos and usually do not know that they are part of the control group. This helps the researcher determine the effectiveness of the study being carried out.

The equation of a line is 6x-4y=11.
nataly862011 [7]
Parallel - same slope so the line with parallel to it has a slope of 6
Perpendicular - opposite negative reciprocal so the perpendicular line should have a slope of 6 too or -6.

Coordinates are: 0, 6

is X smaller than Y? yes. yes indeed it is...

Point N:

Coordinates are: 3, 3

Is X smaller than Y? no. No they are not.
