Answer:
observational study
Step-by-step explanation:
The above is an example of observational study. An observational study merely observes and takes note, it does not try to interfere or intervene with the sample by deciding who would be exposed or not exposed to a certain explanatory variable(such as a disease). On the other hand, the experimental study divide up samples into groups, having the experimental group and the control group. This way the researcher interfers with the sample: The experimental group being the group exposed to the independent/explanatory variable while the other/control group is not.
