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 How does altitude relate to song frequency of birds? (1 point) Responses Higher altitudes are correlated with lower song frequencies. Higher altitudes are correlated with lower song frequencies. Medium altitude has medium frequency songs. Medium altitude has medium frequency songs. Altitude does not affect bird song frequencies. Altitude does not affect bird song frequencies. Higher altitudes are correlated with higher song frequencies.
1 answer
The correct response is: Higher altitudes are correlated with lower song frequencies.
Based on the data provided, as the altitude increases, the frequency of bird songs decreases (80 below 1500 Hz at low altitude, 50 below 1500 Hz at medium altitude, and 20 below 1500 Hz at high altitude). This indicates that higher altitudes are associated with lower song frequencies.
