Leslie wanted to determine which catsup was the thickest. She set up a board on a slope and placed cup
of three different brands of catsup at the top. She measured the time it took each catsup brand to reach the
bottom.

Gary is not the smartest snail in Bikini Bottom and believes he can
improve his brain power by eating Super Snail Snacks. In order to
test his hypothesis, he recruits SpongeBob and several snail friends
to help him with the experiment. The snails ate one snack with each
meal every day for three weeks. SpongeBob created a test and gave
it to the snails before they started eating the snacks as well as after
three weeks.

Mr. Krabs wants to make Bikini Bottoms a nicer place to live. He has
created a new sauce that he thinks will reduce the production of body gas
associated with eating crabby patties from the Krusty Krab. He recruits
100 customers with a history of gas problems. He has 50 of them (group
A) eat crabby patties with the new sauce. The other 50 (group B) eat
crabby patties with sauce that looks just like the new sauce but is really
just a mixture of mayonnaise and food coloring. Both groups were told that
they were getting the sauce that would reduce gas production. Two hour
after eating the crabby patties, 30 customers in group A reported having
fewer gas problems and 8 customers in group B reported having fewer gas
problems.
Which people are in the control group?
