Read the following scenario and answer the questions   The effects of light on bean beetle reproduction Bean beetles reproduce by laying eggs on mung beans.  The eggs hatch into larvae that burrow into the mung bean.  After 10 weeks of development, adult bean beetles emerge from the mung beans and start to reproduce.  You hypothesize that the presence of light will increase the reproduction of bean beetles. To examine the effect of exposure to light on bean beetle reproduction a petri dish containing 3 male and 3 female bean beetles, were placed in a darkened box that had a 100W bulb turned on twenty-four hours a day for 10 weeks, while an identical petri dish was placed in a darkened box without a light source.  Both boxes were placed underneath a benchtop in a lab.  Each petri dish contained 8 g of mung beans.  The mung beans came from the same packet of beans.  The male and female beetles came from the same stock and were the same age.   One limiting factor in your experiment is that you only have 70g of mung beans available to you.  You repeated the experiment as many times as possible with this limitation.  After 10 weeks the experiment was terminated and at that time the number of eggs laid was counted and the number of newly hatched beetles was counted.  These data were gathered for each petri dish and comparisons were made between the test group and the control group. In this scenario: What is/are the independent variable(s)? [a] What is/are the dependent variable(s)? [b] What is/are the control variable(s)?        [c] What is the treatment level?               [d] How many repetitions were there?   [e] What was the control group?     [f] Write a prediction based on the hypothesis that light affects bean beetle reproduction  [g]
