Second-Hand Smoke: Data Set 12 “Passive and Active Smoke” in Appendix B includes cotinine levels measured in a group of nonsmokers exposed to tobacco smoke (n = 40, Mean = 60.58 ng>mL, s = 138.08 ng>mL) and a group of nonsmokers not exposed to tobacco smoke (n = 40, Mean = 16.35 ng>mL, s = 62.53 ng>mL). Cotinine is a metabolite of nicotine, meaning that when nicotine is absorbed by the body, cotinine is produced.
Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that nonsmokers exposed to tobacco smoke have a higher mean cotinine level than nonsmokers not exposed to tobacco smoke.
Construct the confidence interval appropriate for the hypothesis test in part a.
What do you conclude about the effects of second-hand smoke?
1. A study of the potential of acrylonitrile to produce brain tumors in rats was conducted by administering the carcinogen in drinking water for 24 months. The results of the study for female rats are tabulated below:
Dose (mg/kg-day)

(a) Determine the potency factor (PF) of the dose-response relationship (assume it is linear). (Don’t forget to account for the one rat that had a brain tumor even though he wasn’t exposed to the chemical).
(b) How accurate is the linear model for this data?

- The aging Neotropical termites (Neocapritermes taracua) secrete a sticky, blue-colored liquid that they spew to intruding termites. The younger Neotropical termites secrete a liquid that lacks the blue component, so it is white in appearance. In an experiment that measured the toxicity of the blue substance, the researchers placed one drop of either the blue liquid or the white liquid on individuals of a second termite species, Labiotermes labralis. Of the 41 Labiotermes labralis that got the blue drop, 37 were immobilized. Of the 40 Labiotermes labralis that got the white drop, 9 were immobilized.
