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.

decomposition reaction

A synthesis reaction occurs when two or more reactants combine to form a single product. In a decomposition reaction, one reactant breaks down into two or more products. This is the reverse of a synthesis reaction. Replacement reactions occur when elements switch places in compounds.
