you randomly select 15 apple tree locations and 15 citrus tree locations from different forests. Each location is 1000 m² in size. Now you randomly create 10 zones within each forest (300 total) and measure plant biomass in each for three years (900 being the final tally) determine the population of interest, the dependent variable, the independent variable, and if the independent variable is being observed or controlled/manipulated, and number of replicates pseudoreplicates.
Can attack of a plant by one organism induce resistance to subsequent attack by a different organism? In a study of this question, individually potted cotton plants were randomly allocated to two groups. Each plant in one group received an infestation of spider mites; the other group were kept as controls. After 2 weeks the mites were removed, and all plants were inoculated with a fungus that causes wilt disease. According to the research question, H0: Miles do not induce resistance to wilt. Ha: Mites do induce resistance to wilt. What is the alternative hypothesis in symbols when p represents the proportion of wilt disease in a group? p1 < p2 or p1 > p2?
The background concentration of a chemical in soil was measured on ten random specimens of soil from an uncontaminated area. The measured concentrations, in mg/kg, are: 1.4, 0.6, 1.2, 1.6, 0.5, 0.7, 0.3, 0.8, 0.2, and 0.9. Soil from a neighboring area will be declared “contaminated” if test specimens contain a chemical concentration higher than the upper 99% confidence limit of the background level. What is the cleanup target concentration?
An agricultural field trial compares the yield of two varieties of corn. The researchers divide in half each of 20 fields of land in different locations and plant each corn variety in one half of each plot. After harvest, the yields are compared in bushels per acre at each location. The 20 differences (Variety A - Variety B) givex¯=3.2x¯=3.2 and s=4.63s=4.63. Does this sample provide evidence that Variety A had a higher yield than Variety B? (a) State the null and alternative hypotheses: (Type "mu" for the symbol μμ , e.g. mu >> 1 for the mean is greater than 1, mu << 1 for the mean is less than 1, mu not = 1 for the mean is not equal to 1) H0H0 : HaHa : (b) Find the test statistic, t = (c) Answer the question: Does this sample provide evidence that Variety A had a higher yield than Variety B?

The authors of a paper randomly selected two samples of patients admitted to the hospital after suffering a stroke. One sample was selected from patients who received biofeedback weight training for 8 weeks, and the other sample was selected from patients who did not receive this training. At the end of 8 weeks, the time it took (in seconds) to stand from a sitting position and then to sit down again (called sit-stand-sit time) was measured for the people in each sample. Data consistent with summary quantities given in the paper are given below. For purposes of this exercise, you can assume that the samples are representative of the population of stroke patients who receive the biofeedback training and the population of stroke patients who do not receive this training.

The authors of a paper compared two different methods for measuring body fat percentage. One method uses ultrasound, and the other method uses X-ray technology. The table gives body fat percentages for 16 athletes using each of these methods (a subset of the data given in a graph that appeared in the paper). For purposes of this exercise, you can assume that the 16 athletes who participated in this study are representative of the population of athletes.

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body and has several important functions. Most of the body calcium is stored in the bones and teeth, where it functions to support their structure. Recommendations for calcium are provided in Dietary Reference Intakes, developed by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences. The recommended adequate intake (RAI) for calcium for adults (ages 19-50) is 1000 mg per day. A random sample of 18 adults with incomes below the poverty level gave the following calcium intakes:886 633 943 847 934 8411193 820 774 834 1050 10581192 975 1313 872 1079 809Assume the population standard deviation for daily calcium intake for adults with incomes below the poverty level is 188mg.At the 0.05 level of significance, does the data provided above provide evidence to suggest that the mean calcium intake of all adults with incomes below the poverty level is less than the RAI pf 1000mg per day?

Clothes dried outside smell better than those dried in a dryer because of a process called photolysis. Sunlight breaks down compounds that cause odor. A trained smeller is asked to smell a random sample of 20 towels. The smeller does not know it, but all of the 20 towels have been dried in the sun. The smeller is blindfolded and is not allowed to touch the towels but leans forward to smell the towel then rates the towel on a smell-scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is the an extremely unpleasant smell and 10 is a very good smell. A smell rating of 8 is typically attributed to a towel that is dried in the dryer. The mean smell rating for these 20 towels is approximately normal with a mean of 8.45 and the standard deviation is 0.887. A statistician performs a test of Ho μ = 8 versus H₁ μ> 8 where is the true mean smell rating for all towels dried in the sun. This test yields a P-value of 0.0176. What conclusion would you make at the significance level a = 0.05? Because the P-value of 0.0176 < α =…
Show all your work. Indicate clearly the methods you use, because you will be scored on the correctness of your methods as well as on the accuracy and completeness of your results and explanations. Patients experiencing symptoms of a heart attack are routinely transported to a hospital in an ambulance. In a study of a new treatment thought to reduce damage to the heart, patients experiencing symptoms of a heart attack were randomly assigned to one of two groups. During transportation to the hospital, patients in one group received standard care, and patients in the other group received the new treatment consisting of standard care and the application of a blood pressure cuff. The response variable measured for each patient was a number between 0 and 1, referred to as the myocardial salvage index (MSI). A higher MSI value indicates a more positive outcome for the patient. Summary statistics for the MSI responses of the two groups are shown in the table below. Do the data provide…
