In a study, the effects of the mane of a male lion as a signal of quality to mates and rivals was explored. Four life-sized dummies of male lions provided a tool for testing female response to the unfamiliar lions whose manes varied by length (long or short) and color (blonde or dark). The female lions were observed to see whether they approached each of the four life-sized dummies. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
a. Identify the experimental units. Choose the correct answer below.
The mane lengths
The male dummies
The mane colors
The female lions
b. Identify the response variable. Choose the correct answer below.
A. Whether or not (yes or no) the mane length affected how the female lions reacted to a male dummy.
B. Whether or not (yes or no) the mane color affected how the female lions reacted to a male dummy.
C. Whether or not (yes or no) the female lions approached the same dummies.
D. Whether or not (yes or no) the female lions approached a male dummy.
SOLUTION::-
From the given data the effects of the mane of a male lion as a signal of quality to mates and rivals was explored.
out of which four life sized dummies of male lions provide a tool for testing female response to the unfamiliar lions those by length and colour.
(A)Here we have to identify the experimental units::-
for the given information "FEMALE LIONS " are the experimental units of the given case study.
so option (D)-Female lions is CORRECT.
(B)Here we have to identify the response variable::-
for the given information study,
"whether or not(yes or no) the female lions approached a male dummy" is correct answer.
Option-"D" is CORRECT.
In a study, the effects of the mane of a male lion as a signal of...
Risk management in Information Security today Everyday information security professionals are bombarded with marketing messages around risk and threat management, fostering an environment in which objectives seem clear: manage risk, manage threat, stop attacks, identify attackers. These objectives aren't wrong, but they are fundamentally misleading.In this session we'll examine the state of the information security industry in order to understand how the current climate fails to address the true needs of the business. We'll use those lessons as a foundation...
