A study examined the effect of human disturbance on the nesting of Maya birds. The researchers counted the number of breeding pairs of Maya birds per hectare in parks in Laguna, and also counted the number of pedestrians per hectare per minute walking through each park. Some of summary measures computed are as follows: Variable Standard deviation Skewness CV (%) Mayas 77.12 0.21 60.91 Pedestrians 9.78 0.70 69.50   Which of the following is(are) TRUE about the data set? The distribution of pedestrians is skewed to the right which means there are few parks that have extremely high number of pedestrians. There are fewer parks that have extremely low number of mayas.
