Telomeres are complexes of DNA and protein that cap chromosomal ends. They consist of the same short DNA sequence TTAGGG repeated over and over again. They tend to shorted with cell divisions and with advancing cellular age, which will lead to chromosome instability or apoptosis (programmed cell death).
Eukaryotic cells have the ability to reverse telomere shortening by expressing telomerase, an enzyme that extends the telomeres of chromosomes. The level of telomerase activity is important in determining telomere length in aging cells and cancer cells.
One study of telomere length (measured as a ratio compared to a standard) were conducted and results were reported in the following table:

(a) r = -0.892
Source | SS | df | MS | F | p-value |
Regression | 43.1640 | 1 | 43.1640 | 27.28 | .0012 |
Residual | 11.0760 | 7 | 1.5823 | ||
Total | 54.2400 | 8 |
The p-value is 0.0012.
Since the p-value (0.0012) is less than the significance level (0.05), we can reject the null hypothesis.
Therefore, we can conclude that the relationship is significant.
(b) r = -0.892
Regression output | confidence interval | |||||
variables | coefficients | std. error | t (df=7) | p-value | 95% lower | 95% upper |
Intercept | 21.1488 | |||||
X1 | -11.2906 | 2.1617 | -5.223 | .0012 | -16.4023 | -6.1790 |
The p-value is 0.0012.
Since the p-value (0.0012) is less than the significance level (0.05), we can reject the null hypothesis.
Therefore, we can conclude that the relationship is significant.
(c) y = 21.1488 - 11.2906*x
(d) The hypothesis being tested is:
H0: β1 = 0
H1: β1 ≠ 0
The p-value is 0.0012.
Since the p-value (0.0012) is less than the significance level (0.05), we can reject the null hypothesis.
Therefore, we can conclude that the slope is significant.
(e) MS residual is a measure of how spread out these residuals are. The value is 1.5823.
(f) R2 = 0.796
R2 tells the explained variation in the data.
(g) y = 21.1488 - 11.2906*0.60 = 14.374
