Question

This design enabled them to control for several factors. The total area of the patch plus the corridor, or the patch plus the wings was the same. The total amount of edge (perimeter of each patch) was similar between the two treatments. Both patch types were the same distance from the central patch.

Answer 1

Graph 1: This design does not control for distance from the central patch.

Graph 2: This design does not control for area of the patch.

Graph 3: In this design, there is no difference between the treatments.

Graph 4: This design does not control for edge effects.
