The Scientific Method

Professor Bob thinks that a new additive he derived from a rare plant will increase the productivity of his students. He recruits volunteers and divides them into two groups, each containing 100 students. He asks each group of students to staple sets of papers together. Group A was given an energy drink with his new additive to drink while stapling the papers; Group B drank an energy drink without the additive. After 30 minutes of stapling papers, Professor Bob finds that Group A has 1,460 stacks stapled, and Group B has stapled 1,820 stacks of paper.

4. What was the Control Group?

5. What is the Independent Variable?

7. What is the Conclusion?

8. Explain at least two ways to improve this experiment.

Explanation / Answer

4. Group B is the control group in this experiment as they are not given the drink without additive

5. Rare plant additive is the independent variable here.

6. Number of stacks stapled is the dependent variable here.

7.The conclusion is that the rare plant additive has not increased the productivity of those who drank it (group A).

Not sure about Question 8. Please post it separately along with the paragraph for others to answer. thank you.
