How is the hatching of water python eggs influenced by the temperature of the snake’s nest? Researchers randomly assigned newly laid eggs to one of three water temperatures: hot, neutral, or cold. Hot duplicates the extra warmth provided by the mother python, and cold duplicates the absence of the mother. Here are the data on the number of eggs and the number that hatched
(a) Make a two-way table of temperature by outcome (hatched or not). Calculate the proportion of eggs in each group that hatched. The researchers believed that eggs would not hatch in cold water. Do the data support that belief?
(b) Are the differences between the three groups statistically significant? Give appropriate evidence to support your answer
