The value of 'Z' (regression coefficient) lies in the range of ______ regardless of the taxonomic group or the region.

Options

• 0.5 to 0.7

• 0.3 to 0.7

• 0.2 to 0.3

• 0.1 to 0.2

Answer 1

The value of 'Z' (regression coefficient) lies in the range of 0.1 to 0.2 regardless of the taxonomic group or the region.

Explanation:

Ecologists determined that the value of Z is in the range of 0.1 to 0.2, independent of taxonomic group or place, whether it is planted in Britain, birds in California, or molluscs in New York state, the slopes of the regression line are quite comparable.
