Decision
Since 8.45 > 5.991 , Thus we reject H 0

Conclusion
We can conclude that the three drugs differ in their effects.

2. Perry et al.* determined plasma epinephrine concentrations during isoflurane, halothane, and cyclopropane anesthesia in 10 dogs. The results are shown in table below. Do these data suggest a difference in treatment effects? Let = 0.05

Conclusion
We can conclude that there is no difference in the three treatments effect. 3. Syme and Pollard* conducted an experiment to investigate the effect of different motivation levels on measures of food-getting dominance in the laboratory rat. The data shown in table below are the amounts of food in grams eaten by eight male hooded rats following 0, 24 and 72 hours of food deprivation. Do these data provide sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the effects of the three levels of food deprivation? Let = 0.05
