Question
Data is collected on the frequency of mountain bird songs at three different elevations. Data is collected from 100 birds at each elevation.
Low altitude: 80 below 1500 Hz
Medium altitude: 50 below 1500 Hz
High altitude: 20 below 1500 Hz

The correct response based on the data provided would be:
**Higher altitudes are correlated with lower song frequencies.**
This conclusion is supported by the data showing that at low altitude, 80 birds sing below 1500 Hz, while at medium altitude, the number decreases to 50 birds below 1500 Hz, and at high altitude, only 20 birds sing below 1500 Hz. This indicates that as altitude increases, the frequency of bird songs tends to decrease.
