The spicy heat of chili peppers is due to a chemical called capsaicin. A biologist gathered fruits wild chili plants in four isolated valleys (A, B, C, and D) and measured their spicy heat. The measurements (concentration of capsaicin) were as graphed as follows. Complete the statements below which refer to these graphs representing the four populations of chilies: According to the graphs (be sure to carefully look at the graphs, especially the axes values): Valley [a1] has the highest average spicy heat. Valley [a2] has the most variation in spicy heat. Valley [a3] has the largest number of chilies.
