Assignment task: Note that some scientific papers have separate Results and Discussion sections, and some have combined Results and Discussion sections. It usually depends on the requirements of the journal that publishes the article. Here, the journal "Journal of Plankton Research" has separate sections.
1. Explain the purpose of the Results section.
2. What type of information is included in the Results section?
3. In this section, how are the data presented?
4. Do you see the same data presented in both Tables and Figures?
5. It is not sufficient to present results in either Tables or Figures alone, but rather descriptive text is required as well. What is the purpose of this descriptive text in this section?
6. Are there any methodological statements (i.e. statements that explain how the experiment was done) in this section?
7. In this study, did the width of stripes affect compass reaction by Daphnia? What statistical result was provided that supports your statement?
8. Did the speed at which the drum turned affect optomotor response behaviour by Daphnia
