Please l need a simple explanation to this.

Use the following data sets in problems #4 - #6.

Data Set 1: A genetic study was performed on the number of armored plates found on stickleback fish.

A random sample of 40 stickleback fish showed the following number of plates: 42 64 62 9 12 62 50 12 27 11 65 64 63 21 49 62 43 65 51 62 12 21 62 62 66 9 64 12 63 10 54 21 61 9 20 63 45 57 60 62 Data Set 2: It has been hypothesized that the body temperature of healthy adult humans is normally distributed. A random sample of 25 healthy adults resulted in the following body temperatures: 98.5 98.6 97.8 98.9 97.9 99 98.2 98.7 98.8 99 98 99.2 99.5 99.4 98.3 99.1 98.4 97.6 97.4 97.7 97.5 98.8 98.6 99.3 98.4

4. For each of the data sets, calculate the mean and median. Based on the mean and median, what is the most likely distribution of each data set? 5. Construct a boxplot for EACH data set. 6. Do the graphs in #5 support your answers to #4? Justify your answer using a complete sentence(s) and proper grammar.
