  1. (50%) To compare drug effects of two drugs that were developed to reduce sugar level, a group of volunteers were recruited (view that as a random sample). The researcher ask each volunteer to use one of the two drug in the first time of taking a drug, and use the other drug when the second time a drug is used. The amount of sugar reduction were recorded as the initial measure minus the sugar measure after one hour of using the corresponding drugs.
