<em>A natural disaster. </em>

Explanation:

A natural disaster would most likely have occurred to have the population of squirrels completely diverge from each other in order for them to become two separate species.

If a tornado, flood, earthquake, or another type of a natural disaster were to happen, it may have caused drastic damage to the ecosystem and environment of the squirrels. This would most likely cause the squirrels to split up, or diverge from each other and go to separate places in search of a new home.

Over time, these squirrels will reproduce with their own group. Each new group of squirrels, as they are both in different environments now, will have different adaptations from each other. This will eventually make it so they will never be able to reproduce with each other again if they were to meet, as they are now completely different species of squirrel.

Which group serves as the control​ group? A. Group 2 serves as the control group because this group corresponds to the standard
Reil [10]

Answer:

First, let's add the missing piece of information

A school psychologist wants to test the effectiveness of a new method of teaching FrenchFrench. She recruits 100100 firstfirst​-grade students and randomly divides them into two groups. Group 1 is taught by means of the new​ method, while group 2 is taught by traditional methods. The same teacher is assigned to teach both groups. At the end of the​ year, an achievement test​ (graded on a scale from​ 1-10) is administered and the results of the two groups are compared.

The CORRECT ANSWER IS A.

A. Group 2 serves as the control group because this group corresponds to the standard method that will be compared to the other method.

Explanation:

A control group

The control group acts as a baseline treatment that is employed in contrasting it to the other form(s) of treatments.

Ex: In this case study, a school psychologist wants to test the effectiveness of a new method of teaching French, to see if the ones taught by using a new method (are placed in group 1) do better in learning French than those taught with the traditional method (are placed in group 2). The students being taught French with the traditional method (group 2) would serve as the control group (as this is the present, proven and acceptable practice of teaching French. The factor is the method of teaching French. There are two treatments: new method and traditional method.

Therefore, the option A. is THE CORRECT ANSWER

A. Group 2 serves as the control group because this group corresponds to the standard method that will be compared to the other method.
