Instructions: Please read the following research study and then answer each of the questions.
Research on alcohol has shown that the more a person drinks, the worse their motor skills will become, such as walking, coordination, and balance. Dr. Hernandez decided to test this claim by randomly assigning volunteers to two groups in which people either drank alcohol or not. Ten people drank 6 oz. of vodka in one hour; 10 people drank 6 oz. of water in one hour. Dr. Hernandez predicted that people in the alcohol group will not be able to balance on one foot for as many seconds as people in the water group.
