A study was conducted to investigate the effect of a coal-fired generating plant upon the water quality of a river. As part of an environmental impact study, fish were captured, tagged, and released. The following information was recorded for each fish: sex (0=female, 1=male), length (cm), maturation (0=young, 1=adult), weight (g). The level of these data is ordinal, ratio, nominal, ratio. nominal, interval, ordinal, ratio. O ordinal, interval, ordinal, ratio. O nominal, ratio, ordinal, ratio. nominal, ratio, nominal, ratio.
