In order to estimate the relative abundance and geographic distribution of pheasants in Iowa, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources conducts annual road side surveys of pheasant populations. On the roads bordering five randomly selected farms in one county labeled generically as Farms A, B, C, D, and E, the survey counts were as follows:
Farm
# Pheasants
Road miles

One hypothesis about the geographic distribution of organisms, knowns as the spatial randomness hypothesis, asserts, as applied to the pheasant survey, that pheasants are randomly distributed throughout uniform habitat in such a way that the expected number of pheasants along any stretch of road is proportional to the length of that road. The lengths of road traveled along each farm are shown in the rightmost column of the table. Do the counts from the survey support or cast doubt on the spatial randomness hypothesis for pheasants on farmland in this country? Take a = 0.05.
The table lists the average gestation period (in days) and longevity (in years) for the following mammals, as reported in The World Almanac and Book of Facts 2006.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), industrial pollutants, are known to be carcinogens and a great danger to natural ecosystems. As a result of several studies, PCB production was banned in the United States in 1979 and by the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants in 2001. One study, published in 1972 by R. W. Risebrough, is titled ‘‘Effects of Environmental Pollutants Upon Animals Other Than Man’’ (Proceedings of the 6th Berkeley Symposium on Mathematics and Statistics, VI, University of California Press, pp. 443–463). In that study, 60 Anacapa pelican eggs were collected and measured for their shell thickness, in millimeters (mm), and concentration of PCBs, in parts per million (ppm). Following is a relative-frequency histogram of the PCB concentration data.arrow_forward2.
