Question
Chapter 6.10, Problem 2MC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
That which group of beetles would fly farther when placed in a device that measures how far an animal can fly at
Concept introduction:
Insects while flying and pollinating flowers use energy due to the activity of flight muscles. Insects try to spend less energy and store it to provide energy to flight muscles for the activity of flying. The flight muscles use energy very efficiently in favorable temperatures.

You want to test whether a pesticide effectively controls (kills) yam beetles. You have access to the plants yam beetles eat, a greenhouse, the pesticide and yam beetles. How would you set up your experiment to determine if the pesticide could effectively kill the beetles? (Hint: think of your variables, what are some variable you'd control? what would you manipulate/vary? what would you measure?)

- Figure 1.15 Example of error bars in a graph. This graph was adapted from the peacock butterfly research described in Section 1.5. The researchers recorded the number of times each butterfly flicked its wings in response to an attack by a bird. The squares represent average frequency of wing flicking for each sample set of butterflies. The error bars that extend above and below the dots indicate the range of valuesthe sampling error. Figure It Out: What was the fastest rate at which a butterfly with no spots or sound flicked its wings?arrow_forwardThe ultraviolet solar radiation easily penetrates the cloud system , but the re-radiated infrared waves in the form of heat are trapped for a variable time in the cloud systems .. true or falsearrow_forwardA biology student is investigating the claim that the temperature can be predicted by counting cricket chirps. He has collected data and comes up with the linear model T=39.2+0.233r, where T is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit and r is the number of chirps per minute. Interpret the slope of the equation. The model predicts a decrease of 0.233 degrees for each increase of 1 chirp per minute. The model predicts a decrease of 39.2 degrees for each increase of 1 chirp per minute. The model predicts an increase of 39.2 degrees for each increase of 1 chirp per minute. The model predicts an increase of 0.233 degrees for each increase of 1 chirp per minute.arrow_forward
