Suppose that, in Example 2.27, 400 units of food A, 600 units of B, and 600 units of C are placed in the test tube each day and the data on daily food consumption by the bacteria (in units per day) are as shown in Table 2.6. How many bacteria of each strain can coexist in the test tube and consume all of the food?

In order to test this association, the researcher divides smoking into currently more than a pack a day, currently less than a pack a day, and never smokers. The following table represents the BMIs for each participant enrolled by their respective smoking category.

Because I didn't know whether sex also affected MPI activity, I separated the amphipods by sex. F and S stand for fast and slow respectively, and have to do with electrophoretic mobility on an agarose gel. FF, FS, and SS then reflect genotypes with FS being the heterozygote. Consider the numbers to be activity units. Analysis these data with the appropriate two-way ANOVA and state your conclusions below.

- In a test of the hypothesis that females smile at others more than males do, females and males were videotaped while interacting and the number of smiles emitted by each sex was noted. Using the following information regarding number of smiles in the five-minute interaction, examine whether there are sex differences in the number of smiles.

A laser is powered with either standard alkaline batteries, lithium ion batteries, or rechargeable nickel hydride batteries. For simplicity, just call these batteries Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3. Different lasers are run with ambient temperature set at either 60 degrees, 70 degrees, or 80 degrees Fahrenheit. (a) What is the response variable in this experiment? (b) What are the factors in this experiment?(c) List the levels of each factor(d) How many possible treatments can be created in this experiment?(e) List four possible treatments (you do not need to list all of the treatments).arrow_forwardIn birds, wingspan is determined by two genes, one with complete dominance of one allele over theother, one with additive effects. Birds with genotype aabb has 16 cm long wingspan, whereas those with AABB has 20 cm long wingspan. A cross between AABB and aabb parents produced F1 with19cm wingspan. Crossing the F1s produced F2 with the following phenotypes (in cm): 20.0 19.6 18.3 20.0 19.1 18.7 18.2 17.316.0 19.2 17.8 18.4 19.3 19.5 20.0 19.7 NOTE: write the formula and the final answer a.

- A sociologist recorded the number of contacts entered in a cell phone and the number of texts sent in a week for 20 cell phone users. The resulting data were used to conduct a hypothesis test to investigate whether there is a linear relationship between the number of contacts and the number of texts sent.

Make sure you follow all the appropriate steps. You should probably use Ras you’ll get done much quicker. Remember to very clearly state your results in writing. Never turn in just an R printout .Hint: how do you decide which test to use? What kind of distributions do the data have?arrow_forward
