question 35

Multiple Choice

Normal Distribution

A symmetric probability distribution centered on the mean, demonstrating that occurrences near the mean happen more often than those far from it.

Maximum Oxygen Uptake

The maximum rate at which an individual can consume oxygen during intense or maximal exercise, indicating cardiorespiratory fitness.

Alternative Hypothesis

A statement in hypothesis testing that proposes a difference or effect, opposing the null hypothesis which suggests no effect or difference.
