How is a "controlled experiment" different from a "control" group, and how are they related?

This is my biology homework question.


Help meeee.


Please put your answers in complete sentence(s), and do not give me links to go look at.


Thank you!|||A controlled experiment occurs in a lab/research setting. As opposed to a 'naturalistic observation', which is research done in the field by observing natural behavior/occurences. A control group acts as the checks and balances to the actual experiment. You will have the 'test' group that is given a test variable. You measure your results. The 'control' group is not given the actual test variable and those results are compared against the test groups'.
