Which would be the best experimental design to answer this question?   Question 4 options:   Two snakes - one of each species - each bite a mouse. The mouse that dies more quickly tells you which snake has more toxic venom.   Venom from 60 snakes - 30 of each species - is injected into a mouse. The mouse that dies more quickly tells you which snake has more toxic venom.   Venom from two snakes - one of each species - is injected into a mouse. The mouse that dies more quickly tells you which snake has more toxic venom.   60 snakes - 30 of each species - each bite a mouse.
