Observations vs. Inferences Figure #1

Submitted by cgualtieri on Fri, 09/28/2018 - 14:04

On page 1 there are two figures, each with 4 panels lettered A-D. Each picture contains a ruler and appears to be measuring a plant. The figure on the left is broken up into a top half and a bottom half, separated by a white bar. The figure on the right has pictures that are not touching and are all seprate. The letters are all located in the top left corner of each image. I can infer that the person who wrote the methods for this image wrote them well because these two figures are very similar.

The same plant is in both figures, and each lettered figure shows the same angle and part of the plant. They both use inches instead of centimeters to measure the plant. I can infer that these two figures were made to observe the lengths of various aspects of this plant, based on the observations of the ruler next to various parts of the plant. All of the pictures are taken from the same angle which shows that the methods were clear and direct.
