Question

Researchers studied the conduction velocity of axons to see if their state,
myelinated or unmyelinated, effected the conduction velocity. It was know that conduction velocity is dependent upon the thickness of the axon and that cell diameter of myelinated axons is larger than the cell diameter of unmyelinated axons. The table below was produced when adjusting for each axons thickness.

a. Name the test you would use to analyze this data and briefly
explain/justify why that method would be the most appropriate one to use.

b. Write out the complete overall strategy for how you would analyze
this data, including writing out the FULL general linear model for any
steps.

c. What is your conclusion about if the myelination state effectively
predicts the conduction velocity of axons? What would you need to
support your conclusion?
