In natural experiments, the researcher compares groups exposed or not to exogenous agents, but does intervene in group composition or independent variable modification. This is a natural experiment.
<h3>
What is a natural experiment?</h3>
There are two types of investigation strategies,
- Manipulative investigation
In a natural experiment the researcher does not intervene in the creation of treatment and control groups.
There is an exogenous agent, such as a natural phenomenon, that influences the study groups and that acts as the treatment.
The researcher takes advantage of these events to use these random groups to compare them in the study.
The researcher chooses exposed groups (experimental groups) that might have been affected by the natural event and other groups that have not been affected (control groups).
In the exposed example,
- Exogenous agent ⇒ Treatment ⇒ pesticide use
- Exposed group ⇒ Experimental group ⇒ birds from nests in pesticide-sprayed fields
- Not exposed groups ⇒ Control groups ⇒ birds from nests in unsprayed fields.
Since the researcher does not voluntarily modify the independent variable to observe a response in the dependent variable, this experiment could not be considered to be manipulative.
This is an example of a natural experiment in which the researcher chooses groups exposed to different conditions to compare them and analyze the effect of the pesticide.

Answer:
Organisms use various strategies and adaptations to regulate body temperature and metabolism. The organisms control the exchange of heat by various ways which include physiological, behavioural means and by insulation.
The factors which play most important role in the heat exchange regulation between environment and organism are as follows:
- effective temperature difference between organism and environment
- Exposed surface area
- Evaporatory and circulatory changes
<u>Insulation</u> :Another most common method used for heat exchange.Animals who have furs,feathers and fat layers which play significant role in insulation. They are very much important because they reduce heat exchange amount between environment and organism. The most common example is of Cats. They used to curl up their bodies when they want to sleep in cold environment, they tuck their bodies in their paws and legs, and they wasp their tails around their bodies. When organism uses the food and oxygen the body temperature begins to increase, this method is known as metabolic heat production.
Cells were taken while she was being treated for cancer many years ago and these cells have been cultured in the lab ever since.
