The data for this assignment are from Michael Crawlely's web site.
The data are the results of a toxicology bioassay. Crawley (2002) describes the experiment as follows (p. 532). "Three products (A, B, and C) were applied to batches of insects in circular arenas. The initial numbers of insects (n) varied between 15 and 24. The insecticides were each applied at 17 different doses, varying on a log scale from 0.1 to 1.7 units of active ingredient per square metre. The number of insects found dead after 24 hours ("dead") was counted.
