A control experiment provides a benchmark against which to compare the results of the main experiment. For example, to know if heating a material changes its resistance, you must be able to compare the results of the heated experiment to a copy in which the material was left unheated.
that is what the scientists use to experiment
The control of the scientific method is the results compared to this part of the experiment.
In a scientific experiment, a control is the part of the experiment that remains constant and is used as a baseline to compare against the experimental group. It helps researchers determine the effect of the variable being tested in the experiment.
The standard for comparison in a experiment is known as a control variable. This is useful to any experiment and serves as a reference point used to draw conclusions.
The control is whatever you base your experiment on. No control = you can't compare your data to anything = good luck making sense out of your experiment. You aren't following the scientific method if there is no control.

after it has been tested against a control group with stats
A scientific control is used to minimize the unintended influence of other variables on the same system
