• C)We have much better tests for bacteria in the lungs than we do in wounds.
• D)The techniques of 16S rRNA sequencing are easier to perform on a sample taken from the lungs than a sample taken from a wound.

Definitions:

P-value

The probability of observing data at least as extreme as the data observed, under the assumption that the null hypothesis is true.

Sample Mean

The average of all observations or data points in a sample, used as an estimate of the population mean.

Population Standard Deviation

A measure of the dispersion or spread of a population's values around its mean, quantifying variability.

P-value Method

A statistical approach used to determine the significance of results in hypothesis testing, indicating the probability of observing data as extreme as the sample data.
