Answer:
participants were not allowed to seek available treatment
Explanation:
Tuskegee Syphilis Study was known as "Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male." The study started in 1932. The purpose of the study was to record the natural history of syphilis.
The problem with this treatment was that the researchers first did not inform the participants on whom they were performing the research about the purpose of this study. Second, researchers did not allow these participants to seek available treatment for syphilis i.e., drug penicillin.
So, the correct answer is the first option.
