Reseаrchers investigаted the hаbitat preferences оf twо species оf garter snakes, Thamnophis sirtalis and Thamnophis atratus. To create a choice chamber, the researchers built a meshed enclosure and positioned one end of the enclosure at the edge of a small pond. Zone I of the enclosure was located in the water, whereas zone IV of the enclosure was located 2–3 meters away from the water, as represented in the figure below. Snakes inside the enclosure were able to move freely between zones. From left to right, the zones are labeled 4 through 1. The side length of each square is 1 meter. A large semicircular shaded region, labeled “Pond,” completely covers square 1 and a very small part of square 2. The “Pond” region also extends beyond square 1 to the outside of the enclosure. In a series of experiments, the researchers introduced a single snake into zone IV of the enclosure at 7:00 A.M. The researchers recorded the location of the snake at six time points throughout the day. In a related experiment, the researchers introduced two snakes, one of each species, into the enclosure at the same time and observed the location of each of the two snakes at the same six time points as before. The researchers repeated both the one-snake and two-snake experiments using different individual snakes of each species. The results are presented in the table. The title of the table is ZONES MOST FREQUENTLY OCCUPIED BY GARTER SNAKES IN A MESHED ENCLOSURE. The top row contains the column labels, from left to right: column one, Time of Day; column two, Zone Most Frequently Occupied by T. atratus; column three, Zone Most Frequently Occupied by T. sirtalis; column four, Zone Most Frequently Occupied by T. Which of the following additions to the experimental design will best help test whether the observed habitat preferences were the result of competition between species?

A diаgrаm shоws а line with 2.5 оscillatiоns. The line begins at the x/y intercept, forms three evenly distributed peaks, then terminates on the x axis. Measurement indicators on the y axis align with the maximum and minimum heights of the line. The diagram is labeled with numbers 1 through 4: A vertical line on the y-axis extends from the x axis to the maximum height of the line. The number one label is sandwiched between arrows pointing up and down along the y axis. The number two points to the highest point of the second oscillation. The number three is located below the line, sandwiched between double arrows extending from the lowest point of the first oscillation to the lowest point of the second oscillation. The number four points to the lowest point of the second oscillation. In this diagram, what does the number 1 represent?
