Liam wanted to understand how flower color affects the probability of successful pollination. He placed 15 artificial flowers of different colors (red, yellow, blue, white) in a garden, each filled with sugar water, and observed the number of bees visiting each color over a week.
Make a claim, provide evidence, and explain your reasoning for the statement:
“Flower color affects the probability of being pollinated by bees.”
Respond with a clear claim, specific evidence from the data, and reasoning that links the evidence to your claim.
Use the data in the graph to describe how bee visitation varied across the different flower colors.
Include which colors had the most and least visits and what this shows about bee preferences.
Which flower color had the highest chance of being pollinated based on bee visits?
Why might yellow and blue flowers have higher survival success in a natural environment?
Explain how the interaction between bees and flowers can help both organisms survive.
Describe what bees get from flowers and what flowers get from bees.
