Adrian is a researcher who works in a lab. He decides to perform an experiment to understand the side effects and benefits of drinking tea. He puts forth some questions about the experiment. They include, Do people who drink tea have a higher risk of brain illnesses than non-tea drinkers? and Do people who drink tea stay more alert than non-tea drinkers? He also proposes a question, Are people who drink tea happier than people who don’t drink tea?
