Explanation / Answer
2
a) Answer- option (b) is correct
As we have to test whether there is any difference between the hematocrit between male and female college students nad for this we have to check the samples of blood of children and examine whether there is more WBC or RBCs . So , this is experimental design.
B) answer- the correct option is (f) i.e randomised controlled
As we don't know which group of samples contain more RBC and WBCs so we randomly select each experimental unit.
C) aanswer-- option ( c). Independent t- test is correct option.
As we have two test here means i.e. on an average there is significant difference between male and female hematocrit. And both male and female samples are independent of each other .
D) answer- option ( c) is correct
As we know control variables are those which experiment or wants to make constant and observe it carefully so here sex is constant i.e. for male the experimentor first observes and then for female by making them constant while observing so sec of subjects.
