Question

analysis

1. try creating different graphs that can help you answer the investigation question. as you create and examine graphs, note your observations here.

making sense

1. describe the pattern you see in the graphs that supports or contradicts the following claims:

a. when there is more annual rainfall in the south, the wildebeest spend more time there.
b. when there is more annual rainfall in the west and north, the wildebeest spend more time there.
c. the wildebeest spend more time in the north than any other region.
is there a limit to the number of wildebeest that can live in a particular region? how would you investigate this?

Explanation:

To answer part a, b, and c, one would look at the graphs to see if there is a positive - correlation between annual rainfall in the specified regions and the time wildebeest spend there. For the last question, factors like food availability, water sources, and space would be considered to investigate the limit of wildebeest population in a region. This could involve field - studies, analyzing historical data on wildebeest populations in different regions, and ecological research on carrying capacity.

Answer:

a. Check graphs for positive correlation between south rainfall and wildebeest time there.
b. Check graphs for positive correlation between west and north rainfall and wildebeest time there.
c. Check graphs to compare time spent in north with other regions.
To investigate population limit: Consider ecological factors, conduct field - studies and analyze historical data.
