In a scientific experiment it is common to split your sample into (at least) two groups. Say you were to study the effect of a new drug on a specific condition, you would have a sample (a group of people with the condition in question e.g. breast cancer), and you would treat all members of the sample the same, with the exception that one group is give the actual drug, and the other group is given a "fake" pill. This fake pill is also called a placebo. The group that is given the real drug is called the experimental group, and the group that is give the placebo is called the control group. This setup attempts to ensure that any effect that is observed is caused by the drug (the experimental condition).
The experimental group is the group on which the experiment is conducted. The opposite of the 'control' group which is not experimented upon, for purposes of comparison with the experimental group.
An experimental group is the opposite of the control group. The experimental group is the group that gets any the test and the control group is the group that does not get any special treatment. The only thing the control group gets is a placebo. ! :D
The experimental group is the group that is really being tested, while the other group is the control group, that has a placebo or some other way of not testing them, to see how the two groups differ.
Experimental groups are those who receive investigatory treatments such as vaccines, or medications. Control groups are the groups the experimental groups are compared to.
The group that is being exsposed to the changes in an independent variable
a group you make in an experiment
A group of experimental subjects that is not exposed to a chemical or treatment being investigated so that it can be compared with experimental groups that are exposed to the chemical or treatment. cw: An experimental control may be the control group. In general, the experimental control is something that allows you to say that the treatment effects on the experimental group are due to the treatments, rather than anything else.
For Example: If you are testing the amount of plant growth with three plants, one getting no fertilizer, one getting a little bit, and one getting allot, the plant getting no fertilizer would be the Control Group. So, The plants getting a little bit and the one getting allot would be the Experimental Groups.

Experimental group
the experimental group
The group which does not receive experimental treatment is the control group, the group which does receive the treatment is the experimental group.
The control group.
Learn about the difference between the control group and the experimental group in a scientific experiment.
An investigation in which a group that receives some experimental treatment is compared to a group that does not receive the experimental treatment can be called a placebo-controlled study or a comparative experiment, both of which are types of clinical studies. The group receiving the experimental treatment is called the treatment group, and the group that is not receiving the experimental treatment is called the control group.
You must have a control group, an experimental group, an experimental variable (also called the independent variable), and a response to be measured (also called the dependent variable). The experimental variable is applied only to the experimental group, so that any difference between the control group and experimental group is due only to the experimental variable. Both the control group and experimental group must have the same conditions, except for the experimental variable.
Experimental group has been exposed to the independent variable whereas the control group has not, and is often used to compare the experimental group's results against.
control group
The control is a group that is held constant and is not experimented with, The experimental group is the group that is experimented with
The experimental group is altered because it is affected by the experimental variable.
The experimental group
