PLEAS HELP A researcher is interested in determining theeffectiveness of a new medication that may reduce blood sugar levels for individuals who have
diabetes and a higher than average blood sugar level. To determine the effectiveness of the medication, the researcher uses 100 volunteers
who have diabetes. Volunteers are assigned randomly 50 milligrams of the medicine, 100 milligrams of the medicine, or a placebo. Blood sugar
levels are measured at the beginning and end of the study.
Part A: Identify the subjects, treatments, and response variable. (2 points)
Part B: What is the advantage of the random assignment of treatment? (3 points)
Part C: What is an advantage of using a placebo? (3 points)
Part D: What is a disadvantage of using volunteers? (2 points)

A: The subjects are the 100 patients who are being studied. The treatments are the amount and type of medicine they are getting, or whether they are getting a placebo. Lastly the response variable is the blood sauger in the patients at the end of the experiment. 

B: The advantage of the random assignment of treatment is that it reduces the possibility of bias and ensures that the treatments are the only factors that effect the response variable.

C: Using a placebo when experimenting ensures that the treatments are actually the ones causing the change in the response variables, and that the treatments themselves are not using the placebo effect.

D: Using volunteers can cause voluntary response bias. This is when members of the population are allowed to volunteer for an experiment. This could cause the sample used by the experiment to not accurately reflect the population as a whole.
