Chapter 40, Problem 10TYU
SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY Eastern tent caterpillars (Malacosoma americanum) live in large groups in silk nests resembling tents, which they build in trees. They are among the first insects to be active in early spring, when daily temperature fluctuates from freezing to very hot. Over the course of a day, they display striking differences in behavior: Early in the morning, they rest in a tightly packed group on the tent's east-facing surface. In midafternoon, they are on its undersurface, each caterpillar hanging by a few of its legs. Propose a hypothesis to explain this behavior. How could you test it?

how would i test my hypothesis that larger galls have more insects that emerge from them in this research study project, I have included the data, gall id is just the identifier for each gall, gall volume is the size, we used volume that was calculated from the diameter because its more accurate on gall size, and number of insects represents the number of insect holes counted on old galls. additionally the new galls we collected did not produce sufficient data and were omitted from our study. i calculated the correlation coefficient to be 0.531418 which means we have a moderately positive correlation. now how do I apply this to test hypothesis and obtain a p- value. I've been trying for 10 hours to figure this out now and I'm getting fucking frustrated!!!! excuse my language. thank you

- Clown fish are often found swimming within the tentacles of sea anemone whereas other fish avoid them at almost all cost. Which statement below is the best explanation for this observation? The spicules of the sea anemone cannot penetrate a slime layer surrounding a clown fish but other fish do that have that neutralizing slime layer. Clown fish are good at maneuvering between the spines of the sea anemone and use them for camouflage. Clown fish are attracted to the cnidocytes of the sea anemone as their source of food. Clown fish are immune to the sting of the nematocyst of the sea anemone but other fish are not.arrow_forwardDiscussion Answer the following questions 1.
