Abstract. Plants adapts to varying climates based on their varying geographical locations. Photosynthetic rates sometimes vary among plants within a habitat, and across habitats... [and are]...correlated with species composition, habitat preference, or growth rates (Guerevitch, 2006). An experiment is conducted to determine the effects of latitude and elevation on vegetation patterns of Vaccinium vacillans. The density of Vaccinium vacillans is measured in 11 4x4m plots within three sites: Mt. Norwottuck, Amherst, Massachusetts, Plum Creek, Amherst, Massachusetts and at Deer Brook, Swanton, Vermont. Each site is varying in latitude and elevation. It is predicted that a widespread, common species will show parallel changes in abundance as elevation increases and as latitude increases in New England.
Comments
shorten scientific names
I thought that it was written very well. that being said, I think that it would be better if the scientific names were shortened and if there are quotes, you should use quotation marks
word choice
Instead of saying "it is predicted," it may be better to use words like inferred or observed to state your conclusion about your experiment.
Plural
"Plants adapts" I think it was supposed to be "Plants adapt"
