Six mice were randomly selected and injected with a dose of a drug to see how it affects their reaction time. After injection, each mouse was put into a maze and the time it take the mouse to get through the maze was recorded (in seconds). What is the variable of interest in this experiment? the sampled mice the maze reaction time (in seconds) all mice the drug dose
