Detailed explanation-1: -What is the difference between a control group and an experimental group? An experimental group, also known as a treatment group, receives the treatment whose effect researchers wish to study, whereas a control group does not.
Detailed explanation-2: -In an observational study, we measure or survey members of a sample without trying to affect them. In a controlled experiment, we assign people or things to groups and apply some treatment to one of the groups, while the other group does not receive the treatment.
Detailed explanation-3: -An experimental group is the group that receives the variable being tested in an experiment. The control group is the group in an experiment that does not receive the variable you are testing. For your experiment, the bag of popcorn that remained stored in the cabinet is the control group.
