In a study of hormone supplementation to enable oocyte retrieval for assisted reproduction, a team of researchers administered two hormones in different timing strategies to two randomly selected groups of women aged 36-40 years. For the Group A treatment strategy, the researchers included both hormones from day 1. The mean number of oocytes retrieved from the 98participants in GroupA was 9.7 with a 95% confidence level interval of (8.3,11.1).

Select the correct interpretation of the confidence interval with respect to thestudy.

A. The researchers expect that 95% of all similarly constructed intervals will contain the true mean number of oocytes that could be retrieved from the population of women aged 36-40 years.

B. There is a 95% chance that the the true mean number of oocytes that could be retrieved from the population of women aged 36-40 years is uniquely contained in the reportedinterval.

C. The researchers expect that 95% of all similarly constructed intervals will contain the mean number of oocytes retrieved in the sample of 98 women aged 36-40 years.

D. The researchers expect that 95% of all similarly constructed intervals will contain the range of the number of oocytes that could be retrieved from the population of women aged 36-40 years.

E. The researchers expect that the interval will contain 95% of the range of the number of oocytes retrieved in the sample of 98 women aged 36-40years.
