Question

Creat statistical test help please

Conduct an appropriate statistical test to see if there significant difference in the number of nutrition points collected for the DEAD (starved and killed) prey between high and low resource abundances. (Hint: you are testing for a significant difference between two population means.) Provide the complete outputs and highlight the appropriate P-value based on your hypotheses. Remember to evaluate your P-value and write out the conclusion.

---> What are some of the ecological reasons that may explain this result? Interpret your results in the context of optimal foraging theory and whether the prey is willing to take risks. (5 pts)
