What is the frequency of deformity in: Top Pond? 47.5% Bottom Pond? 45% 3. Paste the screen shot into the space below. 4. Do you think the frequency of deformity is different between the two ponds? On what evidence? I don’t think the frequency of the deformity is significantly different between the two ponds. It seems as though the frequency of the deformity does not relate to the infection of worms. Question 2: 1 FrogPond 2 1. For a scenario in which there is a difference in the rate of deformity between the two ponds, describe (and if possible diagram) an experiment that will tell you whether the deformities are caused by the parasites, by the genes the frogs inherit from their parents, or by a combination of the two. What will you do with the frogs? What data will you collect? Include predictions for what the data will look like under each hypothesis. The frogs in one pond are, on average, genetically more prone to deformity than the frogs in the other pond (the worms are irrelevant)
