    This document contains a science experiment and questions about snail behavior. The experiment involved placing five snails in the center of a board covered with four different materials to observe which surface the snails preferred over 10 minutes. Repeating the experiment with different snail groups was better because the first group may have different surface preferences than most snails. The question asks why using different snail groups for each trial is better, and the answer is that the first group's preferences may differ from other snails.

    1 Which glass object shown would be the best to measure an amount of water?

    The table shows the weather and when students saw cockatoos and seagulls in the school playground during one week.

    Cockatoos are most likely to visit the school playground on a day that is (A) (B) (C) (D) hot. cold. windy. calm.

    3 Some children wanted to know what surface snails like to move over. To answer this question they made a board and covered it with four different materials. Five snails were put into a circle in the middle.

    The students recorded where the snails were after 10 minutes. They repeated this four times. The results are shown below.

    Why is it better to use a different group of snails for each of the ve trials? (A) (B) (C) (D) The snails may just go to the nearest surface. The rst ve snails may like different things from most other snails. The snails may follow a trail made by other snails. The snails may not remember where they went before.

    Question solutionsClass 4
    Q1 the answer is (A). Four glass objects are shown: a measuring cylinder, a test tube, a round bottom flask and a funnel. Graduations (marks), which are only on the measuring cylinder, allow different amounts of water to be measured accurately. Q2 the answer is (D). The ticks in the table show some of the weather conditions and the type of bird visiting the playground during one week. The cockatoos visited when it was hot and calm, and when it was cold and calm, but not when it was windy. Therefore they were most likely to visit when it was calm. Q3 the answer is (B). The children wanted to know what surface (all) snails liked to move over. Repeating the experiment with different snails would help to make the experimental results more representative of all snails. The first five snails may like different things from most other snails.
