Question: Homing pigeons, when released many miles away from their home coop, have the ability to find their way back home. Scientists speculate that pigeons use the sun as a means of navigating back to their coop. But there are some experts who think pigeons use some other way of determining their way back home, citing individual stories of pigeons who found their way home on sunless days.

Suppose that you had 60 pigeons of the same age that had all been raised in the same coop but had never been released from beyond visual distance of the coop. You may assume that all pigeons are healthy and are physically able to fly the required distance.

(A) Explain the design of an experiment to determine if pigeons use some other method of navigating besides the sun. Be specific in your explanation. You may use diagrams if they are helpful.

(B) Describe the hypothesis test you would use to test your results from the experiment. List the required assumptions and conditions for this test.
