CHI SQUARED AND T TEST
they are both significance tests.. ie. to test if the difference between two or more sets of data is significant or not. if its not significant the diference moght be due to error/chance

chi squared test is to test the difference between the observed and expected result

t test is to test the difference between two mean of the two samples showing normal distribution

ex of t test:: samples of shells were taken from two different places. sample 1 was from low shore and samole 2 was from high shore.
if there was no diff in size then >> the null hypothesis would state that there is no difference between the mean sizes of the shells from the two places.
whereas if the difference between two means was significant it couldve been due to a factor such as its position(high or low shore)

for Q1 it was worth 8 marks, it has a higher chance that you lose marks in such essay questions
