1. The primary research objective is to understand how the accumulation of parasites increases the age infection of the cricket population. The research is designed to use an age curve to quantify the infectious crickets removed from the population.
2. (a) Figure 1a: In experiment 2, the mean jump for the uninfected cricket was about 33 while the mean jump for the infected cricket was about 16. In experiment 3, the mean jump for the uninfected cricket was about 23 while the mean jump for the infected cricket was about25. The frequency of jumps was lowest among the infected crickets only for experiment 2.
(b) Figure 2: The uninfected cricket displayed a mean distance of about 322 nm and infected cricket displayed a mean distance of about
