Explanation

Tasha can set the number of participants, recruit subjects within chosen age and sex groups, and decide how long the study will run. These choices help her match the original study’s design. She cannot directly control subjects’ genetic differences or fully control their lifestyles and physical condition, though she can measure those factors or account for them when interpreting the results.
