4. Water availability is of prime importance in the life cycle of most reptiles. To determine the rate of evaporative water loss of a certain species of lizard at a particular desert site, 34 such lizards were randomly collected, weighed and placed under the appropriate experimental conditions. After 24 hours, each lizard was removed, weighed, and its total water loss was calculated by subtracting its body weight after treatment from its initial body weight. Previous studies have shown that the relative frequency distribution of water loss for this species of lizard has a mean of 3.1 grams and a s.d. of 0.8 gram. a) What is the approximate sampling distribution of , the mean water loss of the 34 lizards * is approximately normal with mean 3.1 and s.d. 0.8 by CLT is approximately binomial with mean 3.1 and s.d. 0.8/√34 by CLT is approximately normal with mean 3.1 and s.d. 0.8/√34 by CLT x is approximately binomial with mean 3.1 and s.d. 0.8 by CLT
