Case Study # 1. A sample of 10 fish is randomly selected from a normally distributed population of Indian River Lagoon fishes. Each fish is weighed and measured and then dissected to remove the otoliths (or ear stones), which are also measured. The distribution of otolith length and fish mass is approximately normal. A statistical analysis of this case study shows the following results: T= 0.8386 (P <0.05) Otolith Length (mm) 150 300 Fish Mass (9) Figure Z.
