An experiment was conducted to assess the efficacy of spraying oats with Malathion (at 0.25 Ib/acre) to control the cereal leaf beetle. Twenty farms in southwest Manitoba were used for the study. Ten farms were assigned at random to the control group (no spray) and the other 10 fields were assigned to the treatment group (spray). At the conclusion of the experiment, the number of beetle larvae per square foot was measured at each farm, and a one-tailed test of significance was performed to determine if Malathion reduced the number of beetles. In which one of the following cases would a Type II error occur? (a) We do not conclude malathion is effective when in fact it was effective. (b) We conclude malathion is effective when in fact it is ineffective. (c) We conclude malathion is effective when in fact it is effective. (d) We do not conclude malathion is effective when in fact it is ineffective. (e) We conclude malathion is neither ineffective nor effective.

Epistasis is a phenomenon in which one gene controls the expression of another. In one case, a dihybrid cross should yield a 9:3:4 ratio. You collect the following data on mice: black coat: 138 brown coat: 46 white coat: 60 Is there any reason to doubt the ratio of 9 black : 3 brown : 4 white?

A manufacturing company glues one part to another part during the assembly of its final product. Either too much or too little glue presents a problem. It is important for the pressure of the glue nozzle (pounds per square inch) to be set correctly because it affects the amount of glue (ounces) that is applied. Ten applications are sampled and the following information collected: SSXX = 129.6 SSYY = 2.345 SSXY = 16.6 X bar = 25.2 Y bar = 2.05 What is the estimated y intercept?
John is skeptical of his friend's claim that Gerald's coffee house has much stronger coffee (in terms of caffeine content) than Sabine's Beans does. So John takes a random sample of large coffees from both shops. and measure the amount of caffeine content in each coffee.
