The proximity of the camera caused differences in both figures. In Figure 1, the plant is fully viewable in panels c and d. When looking at Figure 2, some objects appear larger and the extent of the the photographed region is smaller. The angles of the pictures taken also caused differences in the replicated and original panels. Concerning photo a in both figures, the original figure is facing the plant head-on due to the presence of the surrounding plants behind the M. pudica in this photo. In the replicated figure, it appears to be a similar looking leaf chosen. Yet, in Figure 2, the angle of the photo leads me to believe the student was standing to the left of the plant, due to the rocks on the ground being visible. Also, the stems in panels c and d in the replicated figure are positioned in front. In the original figure, the stems are opposite where I am standing; I am facing the tips of the leaves.
