Question
Imagine that the average annual temperature among the geographic region is plotted on the horizontal axis of graph, and the spiceness of local food(ranked on the relative spiceness scale) in that region is plotted on the vertical axis. If the data show a very tight relationship (for example if the hotness of local food increases as the annual temperature increases) then what can be concluded?
a. Food is spicy in warm climate because environmental temperature makes local food more spicy.
b. Spiceness of food and annual temperature are correlated but the relationship is not the result of causation
c.The relationship between two variable is not correlation but it is an example of causation
d. The spiceness of local food doesnot corelate with the annual temperature in region.
Explanation / Answer
Answer - B
Spiceness of food and annual temperature are correlated but the relationship is not the result of causation
