Empathy means being able to understand what others feel. To see how the brain expresses empathy, researchers recruited 16 couples in their midtwenties who were married or had been dating for at least two years. They zapped the man's hand with an electrode while the woman watched, and measured the activity in several parts of the woman's brain that would respond to her own pain. Brain activity was recorded as a fraction of the activity observed when the woman herself was zapped with the electrode. The women also completed a psychological test that measures empathy.

An ecologist hypothesizes a relationship between wing span of birds and the width of tree branches they use. The ecologist captured male birds, measured their wing span and other characteristics in millimeters, and then marked and released them. During the ensuing winter, the ecologist repeatedly observed the marked birds as they foraged for food on tree branches. He noted the branch diameter on each occasion, and calculated the average branch diameter for each bird in centimeters. The measurement data are below. What can the ecologist conclude with an a of 0.10? wing span branch diameter 79.3 80.1 80.7 81.5 79.5 80.7 81.1 80.5 80.7 1.02 1.04 1.21 1.15 1.21 1.56 1.39 1.31 1.39 a) What is the appropriate statistic?
