3 0

The  standard deviation of the average age of a breed of dog  is said to be 3.69.

<h3>What is the standard deviation about?</h3>

Note that we take:

  • x = dog age has mean 19.5
  • Unknown standard deviation.

Hence:

z = (x - mean) /SD is distributed N (0,1) - mean o standard deviation 1 (standard normal)

Since 20% of dogs are known to be older than 22.6 years:

So 22.6 years is said to be 80th percentile,

Since z matching to 80th percentile (using the standard normal table) s is <em>0.84.</em>

Then one need to plug z, x which is  = 22.6

mean = 19.5 into the stated z equation:

Hence,

0.84 = (22.6 - 19.5)/SD

SD = (22.6 - 19.5)/0.84

= 3.69

Scientists infer evolutionary relationships by comparing the early development of different
ryzh [129]

Scientists infer evolutionary relationships by comparing the early development of different organisms by phylogeny.

In scientific terms, the evolutionary relationship and history of an organism or cluster of organisms is termed its phylogeny. It describes the relationships of associate organism, like from that organisms it's thought to own evolved, to that species it's most closely connected, so forth.

Scientists collect information that enables them to create evolutionary relationships between organisms. Almost like a detective work, scientists  use proof to uncover the facts. Within the case of phylogeny, evolutionary investigations specialize in 2 styles of evidence which are morphologic and genetic.
