Answer:

The 5-number summary for the measured radiation absorption rates in W/kg is:

Minimum: 0.53 W/kg

First Quartile (Q1): 0.64 W/kg

Median (Q2): 0.75 W/kg

Third Quartile (Q3): 1.28 W/kg

Maximum: 1.42 W/kg

To construct a boxplot, you can draw a number line and plot the 5-number summary as a box-and-whisker diagram, where the box represents the interquartile range (IQR) and the whiskers represent the range of the data. The median is shown as a vertical line within the box. Outliers can be plotted as individual points outside the whiskers.
