3) You want to examine competition in barnacles. You examine two species and count the number of each species at the low and high water marks (many barnacles live in tidal areas). You get the following results: Low water High water Species A Species B 54 19 16 39 (a) Are the two species of barnacle independent of water level? Make sure you clearly state Ho, H₁, etc. Use a = 0.05. Also clearly write out your decision and what it means. (b) Which species prefers low water? Which prefers high water? (You will need to calculate some proportions to answer this question).
