Toxicology data

A toxicologist wonders if exposure to a chemical increases mortality as its dose increases. She has exposed test organisms to different doses of a chemical and recorded the number that died in each test tank. Each dose was repeated on three different days.

First, build a GLM. Building a simple model makes debugging easier. Also, you will later compare the results to GLMER. This model includes dose and replicate as a fixed-effects.

Second, build a GLMER. This time, dose is a fixed-effect and replicate is a random-effects intercept.

Last, examine the coefficient estimates with coef() from each model. Notice how the intercept estimates are displayed differently from each model.
