Tikal National Park in Guatemala is heavily visited by tourists. Does the disturbance affect animal densities? To investigate,
Hidinger (1996) compared the densities of various bird and mammal species in places immediately next to heavily visited ruins
to places in the park that were rarely visited by tourists. The mean densities (in animals/km^2) are found in the accompanying
table. The table also lists the P-value associated with a test of the null hypothesis that the two types of plots do not differ in
mean density. Assume that a =
0.05.
Name ONE species that shows an increase in numbers near the ruins that is NOT significant.
For the Tinamou, does it appear to be a higher mean density far from the ruins?
(yes or no)
Is it a significant difference?
(yes or no)
The species column represent what type of data?
(nominal, ordinal, ratio or interval)
Mean density represents what type of data?
|(nominal, ordinal, ratio or interval) Is it discrete or
continuous?
(discrete or continuous)
What kind of graph would be the best way to display this data?
(scatter plot, line graph, bar graph,
histogram, heat map)
