2. Cardboard divider piece was placed in the tank 
3. Paper towels were folded to make panels to line the sides of both halves of the tank
4. A spray bottle was used to wet the side closest to the camera (in picture shown) 
5. 10 crickets were obtained
6. 5 crickets were placed in each half of the container
7. The number of crickets in each condition were recorded every minute for ten minutes]]> 2021-04-15 21:04:54 UTC https://padlet.com/iliana_noriega/g4g3fptbhz69ilto/wish/1423138009 iliana_noriega https://padlet.com/iliana_noriega/g4g3fptbhz69ilto/wish/1423140412 The statistical test we used for this experiment is called the chi-square test where we can calculate the probability of finding an observed distribution of values when the hypothesis is true. Using a p-value will help determine if the data supports or does not support our hypothesis. In short, the chi-square test demonstrates how well our observed data fits the data we expected. ]]> 2021-04-15 21:05:54 UTC https://padlet.com/iliana_noriega/g4g3fptbhz69ilto/wish/1423140412 iliana_noriega https://padlet.com/iliana_noriega/g4g3fptbhz69ilto/wish/1423168856 If the crickets are exposed to a moist and dry environment, the crickets will prefer the dry environment.]]> 2021-04-15 21:17:45 UTC https://padlet.com/iliana_noriega/g4g3fptbhz69ilto/wish/1423168856 https://padlet.com/iliana_noriega/g4g3fptbhz69ilto/wish/1423189022 1.  Empty tank tin foil and cardboard was obtained
2. The container was lined on the sides with tin foil 
3. Cut pieces of cardboard to fit the walls of half the tank 
4. The cardboard pieces were placed on all the walls and floor of the tin foil to create a dark space 
5. A final piece of cardboard was placed to separate the dark room half from the light room half
6. 10 crickets were obtained 
7. 5 crickets were placed in each half of the container
8.

Because our p-values were both greater than 0.05, there was no significant difference. This study is important because it demonstrates how crickets do not have a preference for a certain climate and will not gravitate toward an area based on amount of light or moisture.]]> 2021-04-21 00:07:25 UTC https://padlet.com/iliana_noriega/g4g3fptbhz69ilto/wish/1440369219
