A wildlife biologist expects, based on a long-term model, that sightings of a bird species across 5 habitats occur in proportions: 0.15 Wetland, 0.25 Forest, 0.20 Grassland, 0.30 Shrubland, 0.10 Urban. In a random sample of 500 sightings, the observed counts are: Wetland 92, Forest 118, Grassland 93, Shrubland 146, Urban 51. A chi-square goodness-of-fit test gives pp-value = 0.049. Expected counts under H0H_0 are: Wetland 75, Forest 125, Grassland 100, Shrubland 150, Urban 50. What conclusion is appropriate at α=0.05\alpha=0.05?
