Answer:
Null hypothesis: male and female spiders organized in mating pairs don't differ significantly in respect to body length
Alternative hypothesis: male and female spiders organized in mating pairs exhibit significant differences in respect to body length
The application of one statistical test in order to obtain one p-value (probability value) may provide useful evidence to support the alternative hypothesis (or reject it).
The inference procedure uses the information collected from the sample in order to obtain one conclusion. Frequentism is a type of inference procedure that can be used to test a hypothetical test case, which is here represented by male and female spiders organized in mating pairs.
Answer:
1. primary cause of human-created carbon emissions = burning fossil fuels
2. destroys natural carbon sinks leading to more carbon dioxide in the air = deforestation
3. emits methane from decomposing matter = waste disposal in landfills
Explanation:
1. "Fossil fuels" are <em>nonrenewable resources</em> that are considered essential for the operation of many factories and industries. <em>Burning them accounts for most of the carbon emissions on Earth</em>, and this leads to<em> "global warming."</em>
2. "Forests" are considered "carbon sinks" because they have a role of <u><em>absorbing the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere</em></u>. Cutting down the trees (deforestation) makes forests barren. It then leads to more carbon dioxide in the air.
3.<em> Waste disposals in landfills contribute to the amount of methane that is released into the atmosphere.</em> Methane is considered a <em><u>potent greenhouse gas</u></em> that affects people's health.
