Question:

In a plant mitigation project, an entire local (endangered) population of 255 Congdon's tar plants was transplanted to a new location.35 One year after transplant, 30 of the 255 plants were randomly selected and the diameter at the root caudix junction (the top of the root just beneath the surface of the soil) was measured. If the population of plants under consideration consists of only the local 255 plants, explain why it would be inappropriate to use Student's t method of constructing a confidence interval for µ, the population mean root caudix junction diameter
