(1)briefly describe animal science research question where a statistical method is applied to draw conclusions from data with link to paper.

(2) how the data are collected. experiment or an observational study?

(3) population? sample? unit of observation? sampling method?

(4) univariate / bivariate / multivariate in nature? what kind of variables are used in the analysis (e.g. categorical, numerical)?

(5) simulate data set with variables that will be used in your analysis so sample size, mean, SD etc. are close to whats reported in the research paper.

(6) Based on (4), what kind of summarization (e.g. proportion, mean) and visualization (e.g. barplots, histograms, scatterplots) tools will be useful to answer research question? Calculate summary statistic and draw graph with R code

(7) why is summary statistic calculated in (6) not sufficient to answer research question about population ?

(8) Based on (4) and (6), what kind of inference procedure (e.g. one sample t-test, ANOVA, regression) is needed to answer research question.

(9) In code chunk, carry out inference procedure in (8) on data set with stated assumptions and how you would check them

(10)what is conclusion of your research question?
