Question
a scientist wanted to investigate how changes in
the frogs can tolerate a ph between 4.5 and 6.
the frogs can tolerate any ph less than 4.
the frogs can tolerate any ph greater than 6.
the frogs can tolerate a ph between 3.5 and 5.
the effect of ph on frog embryo hatching
| ph exposure | embryos exposed (n) | embryos hatched (n) | percentage hatched |
|---|---|---|---|
| ph 6 | 30 | 11 | 36.7 |
| ph 5.5 | 30 | 16 | 53.3 |
| ph 5 | 30 | 20 | 66.7 |
| ph 4.5 | 30 | 27 | 90 |
| ph 4 | 30 | 0 | 0 |
| ph 3.5 | 30 | 0 | 0 |
Looking at the table, at pH 6.5 no embryos hatched, at pH 6 some hatched, at pH 5.5 - 4.5 the percentage hatched increased, and at pH 4 and 3.5 no embryos hatched. This indicates that the frogs can tolerate a pH between 4.5 and 6 as there is successful hatching within this range and no hatching outside it.
