Answer:

No

Explanation:

It is an example of experimental group. Experimental group is defined as the group in an experiment under which each variable is tested, however, one variable is tested at a time.

On the other hand, control group is defined as the group which does not receive treatment by the researchers.

The only difference between the both group is that, under experimental group independent variable is changed but under control group it is held constant.
