The pulses were taken again after the music selections were completed. Based on her experiment, Carmen concluded that a person’s pulse rate changed when the person listened to different types of music.  Which component is missing from Carmen’s experiment?
a)
a question
b)
a hypothesis
c)
a control group
d)
a description of the experiment
