Which test is appropriate for continuous data with three or more groups?

Student T-test
Paired T-test
ANOVA
Fisher's exact test

The correct answer is: ANOVA

ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) is the appropriate test for continuous data with three or more groups. ANOVA is designed to compare the means of three or more groups to determine if there are any statistically significant differences between them. Student T-test is used to compare the means of two groups, not three or more. Paired T-test is used when comparing means of two related groups. Fisher's exact test is used to determine the association between two categorical variables. In this case, ANOVA is the correct choice as it is specifically designed to handle comparisons involving multiple groups when dealing with continuous data.
