The student academic group on a college campus claims that freshman students study at least 2.5 hours per day, on average. One Introduction to Statistics class was skeptical. The class took a random sample of 30 freshman students and found a mean study time of 137 minutes with a standard deviation of 45 minutes. At α = 0.01 level, is the student academic group’s claim correct? Calculate the p-value.

In the nematode C. elegans, the vulva forms from a group of six vulval precursor cells (VPCs). These cells give rise to the three vulval lineages: 1º (central vulva), 2º (lateral vulva), and 3º (hypodermis). Experiments have determined that these cells constitute an “equivalence group”, meaning that they are each capable of forming all three vulval lineages. The crucial factor in their fate decision turns out to be their proximity to the anchor cell, which is a cell located in...
