Answer:

a) Observational Study

b) Risk in observational study

RR = 9/10/3/10 = 3.0

c) Relative risk when exposed to a common NSAID is 3 out of 10 people

Step-by-step explanation:

A) This is observational study

b) The parameter determined here is the risk in observational study

RR = 9/10/3/10 = 3.0

c) Relative risk of mammalian cell to develop chromosomal abnormalities when exposed to a common NSAID is 3 out of 10 people
