A newly admitted patient diagnosed with schizophrenia is hypervigilant and constantly scans the environment. The patient states, “I saw two doctors talking in the hall. They were plotting to kill me.” The nurse may correctly assess this behavior as:

Below is a list of ecological studies. Select the ones that are “observational”, and not “manipulative experiments”.

Consider the photo below, which shows the canopy of coniferous and deciduous forest. Explain how a shift in forest composition from coniferous forest (e.g. spruce) to deciduous forest (aspen and birch) would be expected to affect the region’s temperature via albedo. Consider the effect in both the growing season (showing in picture) and during the winter.  

Examine the graph below carefully. Note the three regions labelled A, B, and C. The correct term for an animal that responds to environmental temperature variation in this way is .
