BIG Written Question to Plan Ahead for: (We will NOT go over these answers in class. As a student, you are advised to practice writing out your responses ahead of time, and asking your teacher for any clarification if necessary.) Background Information: Scientists were trying to study the relationship/s between plants and animals in an experiment. The scientists set up the experiment and in one specific set-up, 1 small aquatic plant and 3 aquatic snails were all placed together in an aquarium tank. The organisms were given fresh, pure distilled water, and were provided a regular source of UV sunlight (through a sunlamp). After letting the plant and snails live together for 24hours, the scientists came back to record data and observations. Surprisingly they found that the plant was still living, but 2 out of the 3 snails had died.
The following includes a variety of data collected throughout the experiment: Experimental Set-Up SET-UP A 1 Aquatic Plant (in water with sunlight) SET-UP B 1 Aquatic Animal (in water with sunlight) SET-UP C 1 Aquatic Plant (in water without sunlight) SET-UP D 1 Aquatic Animal (in water without sunlight) SET-UP E 1 Aquatic Plant and 1 Aquatic Animal (in water with sunlight) SET-UP H 1 Aquatic Plant and 3 Aquatic Animals (in water with sunlight) Bromothymol Blue Results Blue Yellow Yellow Yellow Green Yellow-Green

CER WRITING PROMPT: Use relevant pieces of data from the experiment, along with your understanding of Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis, to EXPLAIN WHY THE 1 PLANT SURVIVED THE EXPERIMENT, BUT 2/3 OF THE SNAILS DIED.
