Does the Environment Affect Bird Weight? Researchers Measured the Weight

Multiple Choice

Does the environment affect bird weight? Researchers measured the weight (in grams) of male and female adult finches that were either raised in an aviary or caught in the wild. This observational study does not have a balanced design, particularly because finches caught in the wild were more difficult to obtain. A total of 52 finches were studied. A partial ANOVA table is provided below, along with an interaction plot displaying the group means.
