A baby dolphin is born into the ocean, which is a fairly cold environment. Water has a high heat conductivity, so the thermal regulation of a newborn dolphin is quite important. It has been known for a long time that baby dolphins' blubber is different in composition and quantity from the blubber of adults. Does this make the babies better protected from the cold compared to adults? One measure of the effectiveness of blubber is its "conductance". This value as calculated on 1 newborn dolphins and 10 adults dolphins (Dunkin et al. 2005). The newborn dolphins had an average conductance of 10.44, with a standard error of the mean equal to 0.8. The adult dolphins' conductance averaged 8.44, with the standard error of this estimate equal to 1.46. All measures are given in watts per square meter per degree Celcius. Calculate the standard deviation of conductance for the baby dolphin group. Round your answer two decimal places.

In North America, between 100 million and 1 billion birds die each year by crashing into windows on buildings, more than any other human-related cause. This figure represents up to 5% of all birds in the area. One possible solution is to construct windows angled downward slightly so that they reflect the ground rather than an image of the sky to a flying bird. An experiment by Klem et al. (2004) compared the number of birds that died as a result of vertical windows, windows angled 20 degrees off vertical, and windows angled 40 degrees off vertical. The angles were randomly assigned with equal probability to six windows and changed daily; assume for this exercise that windows and window locations were identical in every respect except angle. Over the course of the experiment, 30 birds were killed by windows in the vertical orientation, 15 were killed by windows set at 20 degrees off vertical, and 8 were killed by windows set at 40 degrees off vertical. a.

Identify the IV, DV, Control, and at least two Constants. Suggest a hypothesis for each scenario.After studying about recycling in his new issue of Organic Compost Quarterly, members of Filbert's compost club decided to investigate the effect of various recycled products on plant growth. Filbert's friends finally decided to compare the effect of different aged grass compost on Jalapeno pepper plants. Because decomposition is necessary for release of nutrients, the group hypothesized that older grass compost would produce taller pepper plants.Three flats of pepper plants (25 plants/flat) were grown for 5 days. The plants were then fertilized as follows:Flat A: 450 g of three-month-old compostFlat B: 450 g of six-month-old compostFlat C: 0 g of compostThe plants received the same amount of sunlight and water each day. At the end of 30 days the group recorded the height of the plants (cm) and then threw a party featuring Jalapeno peppers stuffed with cream cheese!DV - IV -Control -…

Suppose that a healthy population of some species is growing in a limited environment and that the current population P0 is fairly close to the carrying capacity M0. You might imagine a population of fish living in a freshwater lake in a wilderness area. Suddenly a catastrophe such as the Mount St. Helens volcanic eruption contaminates the lake and destroys a significant part of the food and oxygen on which the fish depend. The result is a new environment with a carrying capacity M1 considerably less than M0 and, in fact, less than the current population P0. Starting at some time before the catastrophe, sketch a “before-and-after” curve that shows how the fish population responds to the change in environment.
