Could cancer cells be selectively targeted by using antibodies recognizing a tumor-specific protein marker? Researchers grafted human cancerous cells onto 20 healthy adult mice and then randomly assigned 10 of these mice to be treated with tumor-specific antibodies. They found that only 1 of the 10 mice treated with antibodies developed metastases, whereas all 10 of the 10 mice in the control group developed metastases.
The plus four estimate for the proportion of mice developing metastases in the treatment group is
| a. |
0.1667 |
|
| b. |
0.5000 |
|
| c. |
None of the other answers is correct. |

| d. |
