You are a research scientist studying bioluminescent bacteria (bacteria that can glow). You grow several plates of bacteria and give them a special chemical that you hypothesize will increase their luminescence, or brightness. You turn off the lights and use a device called a photometer to measure the light levels (in lumens) coming from each plate. You collect the following data:
Plate 1: 7 lumens, 6 lumens, 13 lumens
Plate 2: 4 lumens, 5 lumens, 7 lumens
Plate 3: 3 lumens, 6 lumens, 7 lumens
Plate 4: 5 lumens, 5 lumens, 8 lumens
Which of the following pieces of data is likely an outlier?

From the data, the plate that is probably an outlier is that of plate 1, where a value much above the average of the other plates occurred.

  • Plate 1: 7 lumens, 6 lumens, 13 lumens

How does the phenomenon of bioluminescent animals happen?

Bioluminescence is the emission of cold, visible light by living organisms. It occurs in various organisms

  • bacteria
  • fungi
  • algae
  • coelenterates
  • molluscs
  • arthropods
  • fish

, mainly in the marine environment. In the terrestrial environment it occurs in fungi, annelids, molluscs and mainly in insects.

With this information, we can conclude that from the data, the plate that is probably an outlier is that of plate 1, where a value much above the average of the other plates occurred.
