BIOLOGY: INTERPRETATION

Interpretation
Statistical calculations made with the results obtained, conclude the null hypothesis
previously made, is acceptable and there is in fact a relationship between percentage
epiphyte cover and height from the ground. However, when studying the tables of results
it is difficult to find a pattern in results obtained. This may be an indication that any
relationship found may have been down to chance. This is also evident through the
relatively large standard error figure calculated.
As a result I believe that the data is not an accurate measure of the biological
phenomenon and in a repeat experiment it would be suggested that more results were taken
to reduce any margins for both statistical and human error. In this instance it would be
much easier to find a trend in results and so, a more accurate interpretation could take
place.
