The growth rate of a random sample of knockout lines is 0.86, 1.02, 1.02, 1.01, 1.02, 1, 0.99, 1.01, 0.91, 0.83, 1.01 What is the standard deviation and variance of growth rate for this sample?
Researchers have created every possible "knockout" line in yeast. Each line has exactly one gene deleted and all the other genes present (Steinmetz et al. 2002). The growth rate—how fast the number of cells increases per hour—of each of these yeast lines has also been measured, expressed as a multiple of the growth rate of the wild type that has all the genes present. In other words, a growth rate greater than 11 means that a given knockout line grows faster than the wild type, whereas a growth rate less than 11 means it grows more slowly. The growth rate of a random sample of knockout lines is
0.86, 1.02, 1.02, 1.01, 1.02, 1, 0.99, 1.01, 0.91, 0.83, 1.01
