A psychology graduate student conducted a study at the entrance to a football game at the university. The entrance was specifica

lly for students who made the Dean's List for academic achievement during the previous semester. As they arrived, the graduate student asked half of the students to record their attendance on an attendance sheet. The remaining half were allowed to enter the game without recording their attendance. The graduate student told every student to take one soda and one hamburger from a concessions table sponsored by the Dean's Office. She then returned to the sign-in table out of sight of the concessions. This gave the students the opportunity to take additional food. The graduate student measured the percentage of students who took additional free food. Her hypothesis was that students would take more food when they were not asked to sign in. The results are shown in the graph below; assume all differences are significant.

Describe how a farmer in the Midwest might inadvertently affect a fisherman in the Gulf of Mexico.
muminat

  The farmers from the Midwest in the United States are located in the drainage area of the Mississippi River system. The Mississippi River gets all the water from the region into the Gulf of Mexico where it ends its flow. Because for the farming the farmers are using lot of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, they are managing to pollute the water, be it the surface one, or the ground one. All of that polluted water ends up in the Gulf of Mexico.

  The pollution affects the marine life very badly, including the fishes, so their numbers drop significantly because they are dying out from the pollution. That will lead to a situation where the fishermen from the Gulf of Mexico will be left without fish for fishing, thus without profit and without an important food source.
