Question
Do cigarette filters appear to be​ effective?
 
 
A.
​No, because the relative frequency of the higher tar classes is greater for filtered cigarettes.
 
B.
​No, because the relative frequencies for each are not substantially different.
 
C.
​Yes, because the relative frequency of the higher tar classes is greater for nonfiltered cigarettes.
 
D.
This cannot be determined.
