The scientists used a statistical test to determine whether there was a significant difference in
the amino acid concentration in the two types of white wine. They obtained a value for P of
0.04.
Name the statistical test the scientists used and give a reason for your answer. Was the
difference significant? Give a reason for your answer. (3) - CORRECT ANSWER-T-test
