Table 2A and 3B 3A) we performed A priori chi-square test for these two tables. The main reason for the chi-square is to find out if the expected value is any different from the observed value. This part of the observation tested the null hypothesis‚ which states that‚ if when Ear#1(which was test-crossed kernel) is counted and approves of the Mendelian expectation of 1:1:1:1 phenotypic ratio. The chi-square for this data was excepted to accept the null hypothesis. The reason that it was expected

I want to determine whether or not bottlenose dolphins use sponges as tools to protect their noses when foraging for food. Testing this claim will take a well-designed plan that includes the location of the observations‚ the number of specimens to be observed‚ and the method of observation. First of all‚ the experiment will have to have a carefully set time and place. Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins inhabit tropical and temperate waters of the Indian and western Pacific Oceans; they

that the scientific study of human is possible using the methods and procedures of natural science such as observation‚ multivariate analysis and correlation. In social sciences a universal generalization about a class or facts is regarded as a law. A fact is an observed phenomenon. Experiences by the researcher which involves hearing and seeing of events are what make up observation. Methodological assumptions involve the use of theories and hypotheses in order to derive propositions

______________________________________________________________________________ QUESTION 1 1.1 What is the difference between a checklist and a rubric? Answer Rubric: A rubric is an instrument that attempt to make subjective measurements as objective‚ clear‚ consistent‚ and as defensible as possible. The objectivity is achieved by clearly defining the criteria on which performance or achievement should be judged. A rubric is designed to differentiate between

child/children is actually being learnt. Observations can also help show what can influence behaviour over a period of time. Koshy (2010‚ p9) sees any kind of “action research”‚ such as observation‚ as “a continuous learning process”‚ with its main purpose being to improve practice. For each child to fulfil their potential we must all work towards better outcomes. It is through the sharing of information gathered through ongoing observations to classroom staff‚ outside agencies and professionals

ABSTRACT Morphology is inherent to an understanding of how insects live and function. Orthopteroid insects are good choices for this study because gross morphological features are readily observed. Like most other insects‚ the grasshopper (or other Orthopteroid) consists of three general body regions: the head‚ thorax and abdomen. For morphological studies‚ antennae were detached from the specimen. Then‚ the antenna was mounted in a glass slide. The prepared slides were then examined under magnoscope

Describe the characteristics of science. A. The characteristics of science are observations‚ search for regularities‚ process the information‚ and self-corrections. Science is based upon observations that incorporate our senses‚ or instruments that extend our senses‚ to interpret natural experiences. Science is a searh for regularities. These regularities may include observed phenomena or patterns in nature. After observations have been recorded about regularities‚ scientist must process the information

The Child study data gathered has originated from observations taken at Water of Life Christian School. Water of Life Christian School is located in Fontana‚ California. In this morning class there is approximately 24 students‚ 3 teacher aids‚ and 1 lead aid named Tara. The child that this child study focuses on is named Jonathan‚ Jonathan is 3 years and 7 months old. Jonathan was chosen for this study for he was very active and vocal‚ when overlooking the whole class Jonathan was seen playing by
