Some lizards have the innate ability to change color, how would this affect the experiment?

Group of answer choices

It would invalidate the entire experiment.

No effect, if measured in their native habitat.

The ability to change color or not change color would constitute excellent groups, but color changing by itself and without other data would not allow one to conclude anything.

No effect, if measured on a standard background.

The ability to change color or not change color would constitute excellent groups, but color changing by itself and without other data would not allow one to conclude anything.

Explanation: As lizard has innate ability too change their colour therefore the effect of the factors used in the experiments to study change in the colour of lizards may not give any results.

Explanation for wrong answers

It would invalidate the entire experiment.

Explanation: It will only affect that part of the experiment which involves the effects of various factors on the change in colouration of lizard.

No effect, if measured in their native habitat.

Explanation: In native habitat also they will change the colour.

No effect, if measured on a standard background.

Explanation: It is very difficult to have standard background as lizard has so many colour variations.

with regards to the Frank-Hertz experiment, How would increasing the temperature affect a graph of current vs accelerating voltage? Would there be a higher or lower background current? Sharper or less sharp peaks? instinctually I want to say the increased temperature would lead to increased electron emissions and thereby current in the graph but im not sure what it would do to the peaks, im thinking it will make the slopes more gradual as there are more electrons and chances...

Maze navigation ability is an indicator of cognitive performance in rats. Consider an experiment where some mice from a maze-bright strain are reared in a restricted environment (Group A) whereas others are reared in their normal environment (Group B) and answer the following questions. 1. If maze-navigation ability is only influenced by genetics, how would you expect the maze navigation performance of rats from Group A to compare with those from Group B? 2. If maze-navigation ability is affected by...
