How is thermoregulation important to frogs?

Water Regulation
Permeable skin – Don’t need to
“drink”
Desiccation – all dried up

Avoiding Predators ______________ Using __________ to hide from predators
![Page 18: What is a Frog? An Introduction to Amphibians and Thermoregulation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d125503460f949e639b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Making Observations
Anthropomorphism and Preferences
![Page 19: What is a Frog? An Introduction to Amphibians and Thermoregulation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d125503460f949e639b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Anthropomorphism
giving ___________________ to things that we can only observe.
![Page 20: What is a Frog? An Introduction to Amphibians and Thermoregulation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d125503460f949e639b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Anthropomorphic Observations
“Penguins love the cold” “Dogs hate lettuce” These statements are incorrect
because they imply that we are able to observe _________
There is no way for us to really know how an animal feels or if it even has feelings.
![Page 21: What is a Frog? An Introduction to Amphibians and Thermoregulation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d125503460f949e639b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
How should we say these?
Observation: When Jim turns off the lights, his frog moves around much more.
Statement: “the frog likes the dark”
![Page 22: What is a Frog? An Introduction to Amphibians and Thermoregulation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d125503460f949e639b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
How should we say these?
Observation: A bird hides in a tree when the wind picks up.
Statement: “Birds hate the wind”
![Page 23: What is a Frog? An Introduction to Amphibians and Thermoregulation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d125503460f949e639b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Anthropomorphic Observations
Why are they bad?
They introduce bias Errors in an experiment due to the
__________________ of the experimenter.
![Page 24: What is a Frog? An Introduction to Amphibians and Thermoregulation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d125503460f949e639b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Example of Bias
Jane believes that lizards hate each other.
She sees a lizard bite another lizard. Jane concludes, “lizards hate each
other.” What is wrong with this conclusion? Can you think of a different one?
![Page 25: What is a Frog? An Introduction to Amphibians and Thermoregulation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649d125503460f949e639b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
How to Avoid Anthropomorphism:
Preferences What is a preference? When an animal is given two or more options (be they different habitats, foods, mates, etc)
and _______________________ one over the others. How do we show whether an animal has
preferences or not? _______________________: For example if you took
everyone in the room and gave them the choice between dog food or a piece of fruit, almost all would choose the fruit. That is a preference.

Controlled Experiments:What is a fair Test?
Which is better, Taco Bell or Inn-N-Out?
“8th grade students like _____ the most”
So how do we make this a fair test?

Ted’s Experiment:
Ted is examining frog habitat preferences. He puts a frog on top of a piece of sand paper and the frog immediately jumps off. It then lands on a piece of yellow tape. Ted writes, “Frogs like yellow tape the best.”
1)Do you agree with his conclusions? 2)How would you state your conclusions?
