Answer:

The answer has to be A

Explanation:

The trees have nothing changed about them, so they can be considered to be the control. In additon, placebo is given as a control in medical trials, so it cannot be correct. And, the students have nothing changed in D, so the answer to this question has to be A, where the patients are given a new drug.
