Question: Cottonmouth Litter Size. A study by Blem and Blem, published in the journal of Herpetology (Vol. 29, pp. 391—398), examined the reproductive characteristics of the eastern cottonmouth, a once Widely distributed snake Whose numbers have decreased recently due to encroachment by humans. A simple random sample of 44 female cottonmouths yielded the following data on number of young per litter.

1. Use the data to obtain a point estimate for the mean number of young per litter, \(\mu \), of all female eastern cottonmouths.
2. Is your point estimate in part (a) likely to equal \(\mu \) exactly? Explain your answer.
