Question 2

During a TMU data analysis practical, what does a p-value less than 0.05 typically indicate?

The result is statistically significant at the 5% significance level

Answer

A p-value < 0.05 means there is less than a 5% probability that the observed result occurred by chance alone, so the result is deemed statistically significant.

Question 3

In a TMU environmental science field practical, what does a dissolved oxygen (DO) reading below 5 mg/L typically indicate about a water body?

Accepted Answer

The water is stressed and may not support most fish species
