- A plant physiologist studying a small beach-dwelling plant called the Great Lakes sea rocket, Cakile edentula, wondered if the plants grew faster in competition with non-kin plants than when in competition with seedlings that are close relatives. She set up a direct study of kin recognition by growing sets of four seeds in one container. When the seedlings reached a phase of vigorous root growth, about 8 weeks after planting, she carefully removed the soil and weighed the root masses. Plants grouped with siblings had the following root weight statistics: n = 24 X = 6.25 g s = 0.47 g Plants grouped with unrelated seedlings had the following root weight statistics: n = 20 X = 7.22 g s = 0.55 g Are the plants grown in competition with unrelated individuals allocating sig- nificantly more resources to root growth than those growing among relatives?arrow_forwardThe accompanying table is used to make the preliminary computations forfinding the least squares line for the given pairs of x and y values.arrow_forward11 Data Mining Language: R Maximum how many database scans are needed by the improved Apriori algorithm with sampling? 1 2 3 4 Select Onearrow_forward

Twenty, two-month-old rats are randomly selected from a pool of one thousand two-month-old rat pups. Ten of the twenty pups are exposed to an enriched environment for three weeks and the other ten to the usual environment for the same period of time. At a suitable time after the exposure, the psychologist measures the number of neurons per cm3 in each rat's brain. A comparison is then made of the mean number of neurons per cm3 for each group.a.

- A study was performed concerning medical emergencies on commercial airline flights. A database was constructed based on calls to a medical communications center from 5 domestic and international airlines representing approximately 15% of the global passenger flight volume from January 2005 to December 2007. There were 11,000 in flight medical emergencies (IFM) among 8,000,000 flights during the study period. Assume that there is at most 1 IFM per flight. Suppose a flight attendant works on 3 flights per day for each of 300 days per year. Also, assume that the flight attendant’s total duration of employment is 20 years. What is the approximate probability that he/she encounter at least 5 IFM’s over a 20 year period?
