Answer:

(C) 32

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem of Permutation and Combination, not probability.

This clarification is given because most questions like this are on Probability and Statistics.

The researcher has recruited 8  participants and must divide them into two groups of 4 people each.

So there's:

GROUP A - Placebo Group

GROUP B - Experimental Group

Since the experiment is on humans - distinct objects - they will have distinct identities. Assume the 8 participants are lined up according to identities 1,2,3,4,  5,6,7,8

[2+2+2+2  +2+2+2+2] × 2 = 16×2 = 32
