You rear 5 emperor penguins in your backyard. You want to characterize the variation and the relationship between beak length (cm) and body weight (kg) for these 5 emperor penguins
A. Calculate the correlation coefficient between beak length and body weight in this population.
B. Calculate the regression coefficient for predicting body weight from beak length in this population.
C) These two traits are ( positively / negatively / neutrally ) correlated with each other?
