In a study of patients who had a heart attack, 3630 patients were randomly assigned to receive one of three treatments: aspirin alone, warfarin alone, or aspirin plus warfarin. The results showed that 20.0% of the aspirin group had another heart attack, stroke, or died, compared with 16.7% of the warfarin group and 15.0% of the aspirin plus warfarin group. The difference between the aspirin and warfarin groups was statistically significant, while the difference between the warfarin and aspirin plus warfarin group was not statistically significant.
-The statistically significant difference between the aspirin group (20.0%) and the warfarin group (16.7%) means that

A) the difference between the two rates, 20.0% and 16.7%, is unlikely to have resulted from two groups whose true rates of heart attack, stroke, or death were identical.
B) the difference between the two rates, 20.0% and 16.7%, is likely to have resulted from two groups whose true rates were identical.
C) the difference between the two rates, 20.0% and 16.7%, is likely to have resulted from the difference in sample sizes between the two groups.
D) the difference in the two rates, 20.0% and 16.7%, is likely to have resulted from other factors, such as age and gender, on which the two groups differed.
