Which research method provides the best way of assessing whether cigarette smoking causes an increase in mental alertness?

The answer is "experiment".

The prime technique for inquiry in science is the experiment. The key highlights are control over variables, cautious estimation, and setting up cause and effect relationships.

An experiment is an examination in which a hypothesis is logically tried. In an examination, an independent variable (the reason) is controlled and the dependent variable (the impact) is estimated; any incidental factors are controlled.

hi there!

moors is essentially another word for muslims.

the moors invaded spain around year 700, during their time ruling spain the muslims promoted religious tolerance (moors tolerated jews who were viewed as outcasts by northerners), the moors as well had a great impact on their language, and architecture (palaces were created).
