7.42 Shell lengths of sea turtles. Refer to the Aquatic Biology (Vol. 9, 2010) study of green sea turtles inhabiting the TURTLES Grand Cayman South Sound lagoon, Exercise 7.24 (p. 326). Time-depth recorders were deployed on 6 of the 76 captured turtles. The time-depth recorders allowed the environmentalists to track the movement of the sea turtles in the lagoon. These 6 turtles had a mean shell length of 52.9 cm with a standard deviation of 6.8 cm. a. Use the information on the 6 tracked turtles to esti mate, with 99% confidence, the true mean shell length of all green sea turtles in the lagoon. Interpret the result.
