Cotinine is a chemical your body makes after you are exposed to nicotine. The cotinine level was measured in women at the beginning and end of their pregnancies. This change was presented on a log scale. Which would be the best test to use to see if there had been a change in cotinine level during pregnancy? a. paired samples t-test b. chi-square test c. pearson correlation d. wilcoxon ranked test
