Answer:

C.) each treatment is thought of as a value of the explanatory variable

Step-by-step explanation:

The main purpose for using randomization in an experiment is to control the lurking variable and establish a cause and effect relationship.

If we do not control lurking, or confounding, variables, we cannot accurately establish a cause and effect relationship; this means we cannot ensure that each treatment is a value of the explanatory variable.
