Suppose a person does a study on tail length in skinks (a type of lizard). She measures the tail length of 10 Southeastern Five-lined Skinks and 10 Broad-headed Skinks. (Look these up on Google if you want to see what they look like!) The average tail length of her Southeastern Five-lined Skinks is 12.7 cm, and the average tail length of her Broad-headed Skinks is 13.2 cm. What can she conclude at this point?
