Three subspecies of giraffes were examined for differences in the expression level of the gene MFG in a hypothetical study. The data are summarized below. The giraffes were a random sample of the population and the expression of MFG is normally distributed.
Giraffe subspecies | Mean gene expression level relative to control gene | sd | n |
Giraffa camelopardalis antiquorum | 2.24 | 0.932 | 12 |
Giraffa camelopardalis camelopardalis | 2.19 | 0.643 | 14 |
Giraffa camelopardalis peralta | 2.13 | 0.558 | 11 |
