Show transcribed image text Both the Eastern Wild Turkey and Osceola Wild Turkey can be found in northern Florida. A biologist at the University of Florida is interested in comparing the weight of these two species of wild turkeys. The biologist develops a sampling plan that allows her to randomly sample 100 full-grown toms (male turkeys). She weighs each turkey, records the species, and paints the spur on the left leg before releasing the bird back into the wild. (a). [1] What is the response variable? (b). [1] What is the categorical grouping variable? What are its possible values? (c). [1] How many observations will have been collected by the end of the study? (Not a trick question.) (d). [1] Why would this be considered independent two-group data? (e). [1] Why is this an observational study and not a designed experiment?
