Wspólne informacje do wiązki zadań
A hypothetical grassland investigation examines how herbivorous field mice affect runner grasses and tall tussock grasses. The mice normally obtain food from one of the grass types. Replicated plots were monitored with mice present or excluded. The first dataset gives mean biomass from 2006 to 2010. Error bars throughout show standard deviations.
A later experiment measured change in the volume occupied by one tussock-grass species over two growing seasons.
Predatory birds that hunt small rodents from vegetation visited the later study but were absent during the first experiment. Fifteen plots were surveyed for vegetation cover and bird visits.
PowiększIn another month-long experiment, predators had access to all plots. Researchers measured changes in tussock-grass root biomass and plant volume with and without mice.
Finally, plots contained three levels of tussock-grass cover as well as the plants normally eaten by the mice. Birds could visit freely. Feeding frequency and mouse mortality were recorded over three weeks.
Polecenie
Compare and contrast the mean biomasses of the two grass types in 2006, considering both mouse treatments.

Odpowiedź z klucza
Without mice, the two grass types have similar means (72 and 78 g m⁻²), with overlapping variation. ✔
With mice, tussock grass has much more biomass than runner grass (69 versus 14 g m⁻²). ✔
Mouse presence is associated with a much larger reduction in runner grass than in tussock grass. ✔
Schemat punktowania
Award any 2 distinct comparisons; maximum 2. A difference between treatment effects must refer to both grass types. Do not infer statistical significance from overlap alone.
